Why do freezers need to be internet connected? I still don’t understand the IoT appeal.

    But the thing I can’t get past is Fort Huachuca’s failure mode.

    Not: the freezer compressor died.

    Not: the power went out.Not even: the refrigeration system stopped cooling.

    Every freezer went into active defrost.

    The function that did it, per DeCA’s own engineering documents, is controlled through the RMCS.

    This is not proof of a cyberattack, but it is quite a series of coincidences.
