A cyber-attack caused refrigeration temperatures to soar to 50C overnight on Monday across several hundred French supermarkets, with widespread food losses reported. At Intermarché La Haye, the attack caused fridge temperatures to reach 27C (80F), spoiling fresh and frozen food, according to store director Julien Freret. ‘Today, we have a total loss of fresh and frozen,’ Freret said, apologising to customers and describing the incident as ‘an enormous loss of products’
