Port of Seattle systems fail due to suspected cyber attack

Share post:

The Port of Seattle, which manages the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, is currently facing outages believed to be the result of a cyberattack. These outages are impacting internet and web-based systems, leading to potential disruptions for passengers, such as long lines and delays at baggage check and ticketing counters. Port officials have isolated critical systems and are actively working to restore full service, although no estimated time for resolution has been provided.

Passengers traveling through Sea-Tac Airport are encouraged to stay updated by checking with their airlines directly. To minimize inconvenience, travelers are advised to use mobile boarding passes and register checked baggage via their airline’s app before arriving at the airport. The incident underscores the importance of maintaining robust cybersecurity measures for critical infrastructure, especially in transportation hubs.
