X Data Leak Exposes 2.8B User Profiles

Atlanta Airport, was hit by a denial-of-service (DoS) attack briefly disrupted the website. While users experienced some delays in accessing the site, the airport’s operations remained unaffected. The ATL technology team quickly detected the cyberattack and implemented standard protective measures to restore the website’s functionality. The attack was soon contained, and the website resumed normal operation.

Atlanta Airport officials confirmed that there was no impact on airport operations.

They emphasized that the technology team followed established protocols to address the situation swiftly and efficiently. While the incident involved a short disruption to website access, it did not interfere with airport functions or security. The airport’s statement assured the public that the situation was under control and that no sensitive information was compromised.

Although the incident was resolved, questions remain regarding the perpetrators of the cyberattack.

At this time, there is no confirmed information about who was responsible for the DoS attack. Cyberattacks targeting airports are often aimed at disruption or stealing valuable data. Given that airports manage substantial amounts of sensitive data, including passenger information and payment records, they are attractive targets for cybercriminals.

The timing of the attack comes shortly after a data breach affected Cobb County, Georgia. This breach resulted in the shutdown of multiple county systems. The recent uptick in cyberattacks against critical infrastructure highlights the vulnerability of public institutions to digital threats. Cybersecurity experts continue to emphasize the importance of robust defenses to protect against such incidents.

This follows to a similar attack happened a few days back to GRU Brazilian Airport. GRU Airport, the organization that manages São Paulo International Airport in Guarulhos, Brazil, became the target of a cyberattack. The attack primarily affected the airport’s official website, which went offline and experienced instability for several hours. Despite the disruption to the online platform, the airport reassured the public that its operations remained unaffected and continued as usual. GRU Airport confirmed that all necessary security protocols were implemented.

In response to the attack, and the website was eventually restored to its normal functioning.

At the time of the announcement, the website was still experiencing some instability, but efforts were underway to resolve the issue. A hacker group known as “Azael” took credit for the attack and made a public announcement shortly before the event. The hacker claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that it would cause the website to go offline precisely at 1:12 p.m. Brasília time.
