SUMMARY

After hacks on supermarket fridges across Europe and suspected attacks on U.S. military base freezers, home appliances could be next, EU cybersecurity chief Juhan Lepassaar warned Tuesday.

“Today it was fridges, tomorrow it could be routers, the day after tomorrow it could be home appliances,” said the head of ENISA, the bloc’s cybersecurity agency.

Lepassaar urged Europe to invest more, saying cybersecurity “is not cheap.” ENISA’s report warns AI is shrinking exploitation time to near zero.

France blamed Iran’s Revolutionary Guards for its attacks, while the Pentagon is investigating freezer failures at base grocery stores as a suspected hack.
