Cyberattacks on the cold chain: two Italian companies hit, Acn alert

Two Italian companies in the cold chain sector have been targeted by cyberattacks, prompting the National Cybersecurity Agency to enhance monitoring. A Tuscan collective catering firm reported an incident, while an Emilia-Romagna frozen food company has yet to notify authorities. These attacks are part of a broader campaign affecting food distribution operators across Europe. The Agency is urging food logistics and refrigeration operators to secure their systems, particularly those exposed to the internet, and to implement stronger remote access protocols. A meeting with industry federations and major retailers is scheduled to bolster defense capabilities.
