00:02After recent attacks on supermarket fridges, home appliances could be next.
00:07The EU's cyber chief warned on Tuesday, urging Europe to invest more to counter growing cyber threats.
00:13They need to invest in the security of their products.
00:17Security should not and cannot be an afterthought.
00:21Today it was fridges, tomorrow it could be routers,
00:26the day after tomorrow it could be home appliances and so forth.
00:32Recent incidents include cyber attacks on supermarkets and blood banks in France and eight other EU countries,
00:39as well as the PHP vulnerability, which prompted governments and companies to take down their websites.
00:45They raised concerns over how vulnerable society is to cyber attacks.
00:49The policemen arriving, the fire brigade arriving, the hospital functioning, the transport,
00:55giving you a ride from point A to B.
00:59These are the things that we depend on to functioning well and 24-7.
01:06And if they don't, we will have an immediate impact.
01:10And that's why cyber security is important.
01:12A new report from the EU's Agency for Cyber Security found that over 57% of cyber incidents in 2025
01:20were ideologically driven by geopolitical events such as Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine
01:26and the conflict in the Middle East, although most had limited impact.
