Deputy Director Paul Foster, head of the NCA’s National Cyber Crime Unit, said:

“Although this arrest is a positive step, the investigation into this incident is in its early stages and remains ongoing.”

“Cybercrime is a persistent global threat that continues to cause significant disruption to the UK. Alongside our partners here and overseas, the NCA is committed to reducing that threat in order to protect the British public.”

Collins Aerospace, which provides systems for many airports, reported a “technical issue” that started in Brussels and Berlin. This provider handles check-in and boarding systems at various airports worldwide. Subsequently, Dublin Airport, Cork Airport, and London Heathrow also faced technical problems, as previously reported by Cybernews.
