Man arrested in connection with cyber-attack on airports

A man in his forties has been arrested in West Sussex in connection with a cyber-attack on airports, including Heathrow, causing days of delays due to software failures by Collins Aerospace. The National Crime Agency (NCA) is investigating Computer Misuse Act offenses related to the incident, which impacted baggage and check-in systems used by multiple airlines. While progress has been made with the arrest, the investigation is ongoing, and manual workarounds are advised for at least another week as Collins Aerospace works to restore its systems.
