Japan Airlines was hit by a cyberattack, causing delays to more than 20 domestic flights during the year-end holiday season. While the airline was able to restore its systems hours later, this incident highlights the critical nature of cybersecurity in the aviation sector. The attack did not impact flight safety, however, it disrupted operations. This event serves as a reminder of how vulnerable critical infrastructure is to such attacks. Aviation companies should continue to strengthen their security infrastructure to avoid these kind of incidents.
