Louis Duclos wrote that a large-scale cyberattack struck several major French retailers on Monday. According to him, nearly 150 Intermarché stores would have been affected, with losses potentially reaching several million euros nationwide. He stated that hackers had gained remote control of refrigeration regulation systems manufactured by Danfoss, causing forced and continuous defrosting with programmed temperatures of up to 50 °C. Duclos added that stocks of fresh and frozen products were destroyed within hours and that two supermarkets in Haguenau were already reporting 270,000 euros worth of lost goods. He also highlighted the associated food waste. Duclos estimated that the attack revealed a worrying vulnerability for national security. In the event of a conflict, he wrote, a hostile power could exploit such a flaw to simultaneously disrupt thousands of refrigeration facilities, destroy food stocks, and disrupt supply chains in France. He argued that the digital dependence of the food supply chain constituted a potential destabilization leverage and that this threat must be taken very seriously. #Cyberattaque #Sécurité #Alimentation (translated)

Jon De Lorraine stated that a cyberattack targeted the refrigerated facilities of several French brands, including Intermarché, Leclerc, and Super U. According to his message, the hackers exploited control systems from the manufacturer Danfoss and hijacked the defrost function, causing continuous operation and set temperatures reaching 50 °C. He indicated that around 150 Intermarché stores would be affected and that stock of fresh and frozen products would have been destroyed. In Haguenau, in Alsace, two supermarkets reportedly suffered losses of 270,000 euros, he wrote, adding that the national toll could reach several million euros. He cited BFM and Je Bosse en Grande Distribution as sources and specified that the assessments were still provisional. #Cyberattaque #SécuritéInformatique #Supermarchés (translated)

David Lisnard believes that the SCAF and MGCS programs, launched in 2017 by Emmanuel Macron and Angela Merkel to develop the future combat aircraft and tank, are strategic and industrial dead ends. He criticized French leaders for prioritizing Franco-German cooperation without first verifying the convergence of military interests, technological mastery, and the distribution of industrial responsibilities. According to him, a high-level Franco-German seminar held on October 7 would have revealed a different method: starting from the needs of the armed forces and industrial interests, then allowing companies to build viable cooperations before giving them, if necessary, a political translation. Lisnard stated that during the negotiations on the MGCS, Germany was preparing for the succession of the Leopard 2, notably with the Leopard 3 project, and that the delay created a military vulnerability. He called for a break with a conception of European defense that, according to him, confuses cooperation with the dilution of sovereignties. He advocated for a distribution of roles in which the political power sets ambitions and means, the armed forces define their needs, and the industries develop solutions and partnerships. Lisnard also urged for the immediate preparation of the renewal of French ground combat capabilities, beyond the simple replacement of the Leclerc, notably by integrating armored vehicles, drones, robotics, artificial intelligence, and data management. He estimated that this required investments in industry, a recovery of public finances, and a more efficient use of military credits. Finally, he accused the current government of having caused France to lose valuable years and argued that the issue concerned its ability to prepare for future conflicts, ensure the security of the French people, and defend the nation. #Défense #Souveraineté #Coopération (translated)

The European Union is able to meet the winter demand for gas despite historically low stocks, but it must closely monitor these levels and maintain significant imports of liquefied natural gas to avoid increased vulnerability in the event of severe weather conditions. #Gaz #UnionEuropéenne #Stockage (translated)

The author criticized a person he accused of continuing to parade alongside Bernard Arnault and of privatizing, for the benefit of LVMH, a gentrified city. He reproached them for allowing impunity for pedocriminals to prevail there, instead of protecting children, investing in schools, and defending the most vulnerable populations. #LVMH #Éducation #Vulnérabilités #FR (translated)

Anthony Smith relayed a statement from the Magistrates' Union that denounced the government's response to the anger of high school students. The union believed that the methods of maintaining order did not take into account the vulnerability of a movement composed mainly of minors. It cited videos that reportedly showed students being gassed, brutal arrests, and the use of LBD (defense ball launchers) and explosive grenades. The statement claimed that these disproportionate uses of force particularly affected young people of color from working-class neighborhoods. #6octobre #Justice #DroitsDesEnfants #Manifestation (translated)

"Ce rapport qui donne à réfléchir, publié par le GAO, révèle que la technologie utilisée par les contrôleurs aériens pour communiquer avec les avions est incroyablement peu sécurisée, qu’elle peut être interceptée, usurpée et brouillée, et que des pirates informatiques et des gouvernements étrangers peuvent exploiter ces vulnérabilités pour perturber le trafic aérien, voire mettre les passagers en danger" #Aéronautique #Sécurité #Cybermenaces
