Following hacks into refrigerators in supermarkets across Europe and suspected attacks on freezers at US military bases, home appliances may be the next victims, warned the head of the European Cyber Security Agency, Johan Lapassard, on Tuesday.
"Today it was refrigerators, tomorrow it could be routers, the day after tomorrow - home appliances," said the manager.
European cyber security agency ENISA.
Lapsard called on Europe to invest more, saying that cyber security is "not cheap". The ENISA report warns that artificial intelligence reduces the time to exploit vulnerabilities to almost zero.
France has blamed Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps for the attacks, and the Pentagon is investigating freezer failures at grocery stores on military bases as a suspected hack.
