Case study, Europe 2026: Supermarket cold chains were attacked through controllers left reachable from the internet. The same exposure exists on sites worldwide.

Zero-Trust Edge AI Gateway · OCF standard

Secure the IoT you already run. Without starting over.

MOOKER EDGE sits in front of the controllers, cameras, sensors and robots on your site. It takes them off the public internet, lets only permitted commands through, and turns alerts into action.

Case study · Europe 2026

What happened in Europe can happen on any connected site.

In autumn 2026, attackers raised fridge and freezer temperatures in supermarkets across Europe. Both waves entered through web management interfaces reachable from the public internet, some running without updates for years.

11 to 12 Oct 2026

~700 stores

First wave, mainly in France. Controllers forced into continuous defrost overnight.

1 to 2 Nov 2026

10+ countries

Second wave reached 100 to 115 sites, plus plasma storage sites in France.

5 to 6 Nov 2026

5,000+ devices

Refrigeration controllers from the named vendors still exposed to the internet across Europe.

Regulation is catching up

Worldwide

EU CRA incident reporting applies since 11 Sep 2026. Korea's N2SF pushes security policy down to field devices.

Attacks reported

France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany, Ireland, Portugal, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Estonia

Same vulnerability found

Spain, Poland

The pattern was the same everywhere: refrigeration controllers whose management pages were reachable from the internet.

Supermarkets were the target this time.

Substations, solar farms, logistics hubs, smart city poles and schools run the same kind of remotely managed controllers, in every region.

Retrofit security

Don't replace your controllers. Put MOOKER in front of them.

Each step of this attack pattern meets a MOOKER SHIELD control at the edge.

Attack step MOOKER control What it does
Management web page reachable from the internet SHIELD 03 · Tunnel
OCF virtualization
The real controller is never exposed. Remote staff reach a virtual object through an encrypted, permitted path only.
Weak or bypassed authentication SHIELD 01 · Access Only registered, trusted devices and users connect. Everything else is blocked and logged.
Setpoint and defrost settings changed remotely SHIELD 02 · Packet Only permitted commands pass. Policy can bound values, so a setpoint outside the allowed range never reaches the device.
A compromised device calls out to an attacker's server Allowed domains only Registered devices can reach permitted destinations only. Backdoor and abnormal outbound traffic is blocked, logged and the device can be isolated.
Nobody sees the alarm overnight Event engine
AI call (roadmap)
Blocked commands and abnormal readings raise an alert on the console. Next: an automatic call to the person on duty.

Controller compatibility and command policies are validated per site in a pilot. MOOKER does not claim it would have stopped any specific past incident.

Platform

Connect, control, secure, operate. One package.

Most sites buy a VPN router, a security box and a remote management tool from different vendors. MOOKER brings them together on one gateway and one console.

One site network, not a line per device

Robots, sensors and signage usually each get their own mobile line or access network. EDGE-Mesh joins them to one shared, secured site network, so adding a device means adding a node, not a contract. Connect sites, and robots can work across a wider area.

BEFORE

A mobile line per robot
A network per service
A new install per project

WITH EDGE-MESH

Shared backhaul
Wi-Fi offload at docks
One asset and incident ledger

One console for every site

Gateway map, event log, equipment control and schedules in one place. Coming next: incident timeline, CCTV event pop-ups and detect-to-notify KPIs.

Questions answered

Do we have to replace our existing controllers?

No. MOOKER EDGE is installed in front of them. Compatibility with each controller model is confirmed during the pilot.

Would MOOKER have stopped the attacks in Europe?

We don't make that claim. MOOKER removes direct internet exposure and filters commands, which are the controls agencies recommend for this attack pattern. A pilot shows how it performs on your equipment.

What happens if the gateway fails?

Contact us and our support team will check the gateway remotely, find the cause and guide your on-site staff through the next steps.

Does MOOKER make us compliant with CRA, NIS2 or N2SF?

No product does that alone. MOOKER supports the access control, segmentation and monitoring measures those frameworks expect.

Is the hardware certified for our market?

Local certification is handled together with our partner in each market, on hardware sourced and certified for that market. MOOKER SHIELD and the console run on that hardware.

How do we become a partner in our country?

Contact our exclusive global distributor, ComNetwork. We start with a technical call and a joint pilot at one of your customer sites.
