DISRUPTION AT EUROPEAN AIRPORTS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH SUNDAY
Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter
A cyberattack on Collins Aerospace's check-in and boarding systems disrupted operations at major European airports, including Heathrow, Brussels, and Berlin, forcing airports to rely on manual check-in procedures and causing flight delays and cancellations that continued into Sunday. Brussels Airport asked airlines to cancel half of their Sunday departing flights to mitigate disruptions. 29 total departures and arrivals were cancelled across the three main affected airports. The European Commission confirmed the incident is under investigation, though officials stated there's no evidence of a widespread or severe attack.
