Amid a series of cyberattacks targeting supermarket refrigerators across European countries, it has been revealed that a similar attack took place at a blood management facility in France.
According to foreign media reports, on the 2nd local time in France, the equipment temperatures of three regional blood plasma cold storage facilities—which should have been maintained at minus 30 degrees Celsius—were manipulated to rise to 110 degrees Celsius (230°F).
The blood plasma bags for transfusion and other items stored in the facilities were reportedly relocated to other locations and are safe, while French cybersecurity authorities are investigating the incident alongside the Ministry of Health.
