Hackers breached control systems at three French cold storage facilities on Monday, tampering with equipment to raise temperatures in refrigerators holding blood products, according to The Guardian and CNBC. While DW reported the attempt aimed to destroy plasma by driving storage temperatures past the boiling point, France 24 noted that facility alarm systems successfully thwarted the breach before any samples or products were compromised.
