    yeah but monitoring and controlling are two different things: you can have a monotoring system and e-mail / alarms going off in case of issues, and attackers can’t do shit but looking at temperature.

    But when would you ever need to change the temperature remotely is my question.

      They may run the temps lower during business hours to compensate for doors constantly being opened. That’s just one example. Remote control is fine, unsecured access is not not.
