Labcold Statement on Refrigeration Cybersecurity

With Labcold, your critical refrigeration controls remain protected from remote interference.

Following recent reports of cyberattacks targeting refrigeration systems across Europe, we want to reassure our customers that Labcold refrigeration systems are designed so that connectivity and data access do not provide remote control of refrigerator operating settings.

Unlike systems that allow remote operational control, Labcold's connectivity is designed to provide access to performance data, not to control the refrigerator. 

Whether using Bluetooth through the Labcold Connect app, LAN connectivity for IntelliBlood® Blood Bank digital chart recorders, or SD card data logging, access to temperature records does not provide access to the refrigerator's operating controls. Labcold Connect does not allow users to change temperature settings, alarm parameters or other critical operating functions. Similarly, connectivity to the IntelliBlood® digital chart recorder provides access to monitoring and recorded data but does not provide control of the refrigeration system itself.

We understand the concerns raised by recent events. Our customers can be confident that Labcold's approach to connectivity keeps critical refrigeration controls separate from remote data access, helping protect the temperature-sensitive products they depend on.
