Japan Airlines Cyberattack: Suspected Russian Retaliation
Following a cyberattack beginning at 7:24 a.m., Japan Airlines (JAL) experienced system disruptions, temporarily halting same-day ticket sales and delaying some flights. The issue, resolved later in the day, involved a malfunctioning router but resulted in no data breaches or virus damage. JAL’s systems have since returned to normal operation. No similar issues were reported by competitor ANA Holdings.
