Major Cyberattack Disrupts Russian Airline Aeroflot

A cyberattack against Russian national airline Aeroflot today prompted system failures that triggered the cancellation of dozens of flights.

Two pro‑Ukrainian hacker groups – Silent Crow and the Belarusian Cyber Partisans – have claimed responsibility for the attack, according to reports.

Monday, at approximately 6:30 am local time, Aeroflot reported a widespread failure in its information systems, bringing operations to a standstill at Sheremetyevo Airport and across its route network.
