The EU's Cybersecurity Agency has attributed the weekend incidents at some airports to a 'third party cyberattack'
As a result of this situation, airports were forced to process check-in and boarding manually, by pen and paper, which forced many flights to be delayed and cancelled in the early hours, despite incidents throughout the weekend.
The European Union's Cybersecurity Agency (ENISA) this weekendattributed the origin of the events that forced hundreds of flights to be cancelled at several European airports, including Brussels, Berlin and London.
"As ENISA has learned, operations at airports have been interrupted by a third party cyberattack," a spokesman for the agency said, without specifying who might be behind the incident.
In addition, with national links to network agencies, to coordinate incident response and cybercrisis management, to ensure "active exchange of information on the subject" and to assist national authorities in this task.
Brussels International Airport was the first to issue an alert that a cyber attack on Friday by the US company Collins Aerospace caused major disruptions in its services and in other European airports, including Berlin, Dublin and Heathrow in London.
As a result of this situation, airports had to process check-in and boarding manually, with paper and pen, which delayed many flights and forced the cancellation of many flights in the early hours, although incidents have continued throughout the weekend.
In the case of Brussels, the airport asked the companies to cancel half of the flights scheduled for Monday, but the airport reported on Monday that it has begun to return to normal.
