A cyber security incident has compromised the data of approximately 8.7 million customers at three UK airports, according to Manchester Airport Group (MAG). The breach primarily involved customer email addresses linked to wifi sign-ups, with no bank or payment details accessed.
MAG has assured that passenger safety was not affected and has taken steps to contain the breach. The group is working with authorities and advising customers to be cautious of suspicious communications following the incident.
Customers should monitor their email for phishing attempts, as hackers may exploit the leaked addresses. MAG's swift action is crucial, but ongoing vigilance is necessary. Watch for updates on security measures implemented by MAG and any potential regulatory responses.
