Hawaiian Airlines Hacked as Aviation Sector Warned of Scattered Spider Attacks
Security Week
Warnings over Scattered Spider attacks against the aviation and transportation sectors were issued over the weekend by the FBI, Google Cloud’s Mandiant, and Palo Alto Networks.
The FBI said the cybercrime group has extended its targeting to the airline sector and urged the industry to reach out if they discover any indication of a hacker attack.
“Early reporting allows the FBI to engage promptly, share intelligence across the industry, and prevent further compromise,” the FBI said.
The agency pointed out that Scattered Spider typically relies on social engineering techniques to gain access to the victim’s systems, noting that the hackers may target airlines’ trusted vendors and contractors as well.
