When Ransomware Grounds the Skies: Lessons from the Collins Aerospace Attack on European Airports

In this episode, the BLOKWORX team will examine the recent ransomware attack against Collins Aerospace and the cascading effects it had on multiple European airports. We’ll explore how dependence on third-party systems for critical services (like check-in, boarding, baggage handling) can magnify risk, how airports and authorities responded, and what can be done (both technically and organizationally) to reduce the likelihood and impact of such disruptions in the future.
