US-based aviation tech provider hacked, crippling major airports in Europe
A cyberattack on Collins Aerospace, a US aviation tech firm, has severely disrupted major European airports, including Heathrow, Brussels, and Berlin, causing significant delays and cancellations. The attack, which began Friday night, crippled automated check-in and baggage systems, forcing airports to revert to manual processes. Thousands of passengers are stranded, with airlines struggling to provide support.
