SMART FRIDGE SENDS EMAILS IN BOTNET ATTACK

Fridge caught sending spam emails in botnet attack

EXCERPT:

"The attack sent out over 750,000 spam emails, in bursts of 100,000 emails at a time, three times a day, with no more than 10 emails sent from any one IP address, making them difficult to block. Over 25 per cent of the emails were sent from devices that weren't conventional computers or mobile devices. It is the first documented case of common appliances being used in a cyber attack — but that doesn't necessarily mean it was the first time it occurred, and it certainly won't be the last."
