Ransomware Attack on Aviation Tech Firm Causes Widespread Travel Chaos

A ransomware attack targeting a major aviation technology provider has caused significant disruptions at several international airports. The cyberattack crippled a widely used passenger processing system, disabling electronic check-in and baggage drop services. This forced airport personnel to revert to manual procedures, leading to extensive flight delays, cancellations, and long queues for travelers. A continental cybersecurity agency confirmed the incident was caused by ransomware and that law enforcement is now investigating the matter. The affected company is actively working to resolve the issue and restore full functionality to its airport customers as quickly as possible.
