Major Security Breach Found in Hospital and Supermarket Refrigeration Systems

Submitted via IRC for SoyCow1984

Major Security Breach Found in Hospital and Supermarket Refrigeration Systems:

Israeli hackers and activists Noam Rotem and Ran L from Safety Detective research lab have uncovered a major security breach in temperature control systems manufactured by Resource Data Management, a Scotland-based remote monitoring solutions company.

These control systems are used by hospitals and supermarket chains all over the world, including Marks & Spencer, Ocado, Way-on, and many others.

A basic scan reveals hundreds of installations in the UK, Australia, Israel, Germany, the Netherlands, Malaysia, Iceland, and many other countries around the world. As each installation has dozens of machines under it, we're looking at many thousands of vulnerable machines.

    My having lectured the Portland Startup Weekend on Engineering Ethics resulted in their calling 9-1-1 with the result that six of Portland's finest were tasked with guarding a Hackathon for the rest of the weekend.

    I Am Absolutely Serious.

    "Don't expose that shit to the Internet", indeed.
