Cyber attacks affect UK meat processing industry, top security official says

A top cyber security official has confirmed that cyber attacks have impacted the UK meat processing industry. These incidents follow similar hacks targeting supermarkets throughout Europe. It has been revealed that the cyber attack affecting French supermarket fridges specifically involved legacy technology connected to the internet. These systems were compromised because they were using default passwords, highlighting a significant vulnerability in the infrastructure used for cooling and storage within the European food supply chain.
