Independent cold-storage monitoring

If someone changes the temperature, who alerts your team?

Monitor actual storage conditions independently of refrigeration controllers. Get alerts when temperatures move outside your defined limits.

Real context

From supermarket refrigeration to blood storage. The risk is already real.

Recent cyberattacks in Europe show that refrigeration controllers can be manipulated remotely, changing setpoints or triggering defrost cycles without anyone on site touching the equipment.

October 2026 · Retail

Supermarket fridges defrosted remotely

Attacks on refrigeration controllers at French supermarket chains caused cold displays to defrost, forcing stores to empty shelves of fresh products.

November 2026 · Blood bank

Plasma cold rooms targeted through a supplier

A cyberattack on a refrigeration provider raised temperature and defrost thresholds at three cold-storage sites of the French Blood Establishment (EFS).

Monitoring and alarm systems detected the change early, staff moved the products, and no blood products were lost.
The ViGIE difference

A second, independent layer that watches what really happens inside the unit

ViGIE does not depend on the refrigeration controller to know the temperature. Dedicated sensors measure conditions directly, so if a controller is misconfigured, tampered with or compromised, the real reading still reaches your team.

1

Dedicated sensors measure

ViGIE sensors placed in fridges, freezers and cold rooms record the actual storage temperature, separately from the equipment’s own control system.

2

ViGIE identifies deviations

The platform compares every reading against the limits you define for each unit and flags any movement outside the acceptable range.

3

Your team receives alerts

Automated alerts reach the right people so they can verify the situation, move products and act before stock is compromised.

Refrigeration controller

Controls the equipment. If its settings are changed, it follows the new instructions, even when they are wrong.

ViGIE independent monitoring

Measures the real result. It does not take orders from the controller, so it keeps reporting what is actually happening.

What your team gains

See it, act on it, prove it

◉

Visibility over the real temperature

Know what is happening inside each unit, not just what the controller reports. One view for every fridge, freezer and cold room across your sites.

Alerts to mobilise a response

Automated alerts when conditions leave your defined limits, day or night, so the right people can respond while there is still time to protect products.
