That melted ice cream might not be the freezer’s fault.
On episode 56 of Security Intelligence, Claire Nunez and MJ Vaidya join host Patrick Austin to break down three cybersecurity stories and what they mean for defenders.
First, attackers hijack refrigeration controllers from Danfoss, Copeland and Dixell at French supermarkets, pushing cases to 50°C. Team82 flagged the flaws and Danfoss shipped a fix, yet thousands of controllers remain exposed online. Is planned downtime the price of staying patched?
Then, a Semperis survey of 1,200 IT professionals links AI to 84% of ransomware attacks. Many of those attacks abuse companies’ own AI agents and identity systems. Should your agents be part of your insider threat model?
Finally, Bank of America brings on 1,000 contractors to patch vulnerabilities found by Anthropic’s Mythos and other AI security models. The panel debates whether AI can fix what it finds, and why patching can’t be a one-time push.
All that and more on Security Intelligence.
