Flights across Russia have been grounded after a cyberattack hit the country’s largest airline, Aeroflot, on Monday.
Cyberattack Details
Details of the cyberattack remain limited, but a pro-Ukrainian hacker group known for targeting Russian organizations called Silent Crow took credit for the cyberattack alongside Belarusian hackers, citing Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine.
The group said in a Telegram post that it had taken control of Aeroflot’s critical systems, including terabytes of internal company data. The group claimed to have “destroyed” the airline’s systems that it had access to.
Impact of the Attack
The hackers also claimed to have the personal data of all Russians who have “ever flown with Aeroflot.” Aeroflot’s website was currently unavailable on Monday, with an error message saying it had been “temporarily restricted.”
Footage from inside Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport shows a departure screen displaying dozens of canceled flights. Russian prosecutors confirmed more than 60 flights were canceled, citing a “hacker attack.” Prosecutors said they had launched a criminal investigation into the cyberattack.
