Was This Airport Chaos Just a Cyberattack Test?

Thousands of passengers were stranded as major European airports faced massive disruptions. But was this chaos just a technical glitch… or a warning shot?  Experts suggest the cyberattack that hit London Heathrow, Brussels, and Berlin could be a test run for something much bigger — possibly targeting global aviation systems. The attack affected MUSE, a check-in and boarding system used in over 150 airports worldwide. With rising fears of state-sponsored cyber warfare and supply chain vulnerabilities, could the next strike shut down air travel entirely?  Watch till the end to find out why this incident could be just the beginning. WooGlobe Ref : WGA552829 For licensing and to use this video, please email licensing@wooglobe.com

00:00What if the chaos at major airports this weekend was just a test run for something much worse?

00:05London Heathrow, Brussels, and Berlin were thrown into disarray.

00:09Check-in systems went down.

00:11Boarding gates froze, and thousands of passengers were left stranded.

00:15The culprit?

00:16A system called Muse, used in over 150 airports worldwide.

00:21Collins Aerospace, the provider, confirmed a cyber-related disruption.

00:25But here's where it gets scary.

00:27Experts believe this may not be a random glitch.

00:30Professor Alan Woodward says this looks like a test attack, possibly by cybercriminals or even a hostile state.

00:37Why only a few airports if Muse is everywhere?

00:39Why the silence?

00:41Some believe this could be the start of a massive supply chain attack.

00:44And if this was just a trial, the real strike could shut down air travel worldwide.

00:49If attackers truly wanted to bring air travel to its knees, they now know exactly how to do it.

00:54And that should worry us all.
