— were inaccessible Monday morning after a Russian hacktivist group named them as targets for cyberattacks.
Killnet specializes in Distributed Denial of Service attacks, or DDoS attacks, which overwhelm a website with internet traffic. While DDoS attacks are generally considered little more than a nuisance, they can knock websites offline for hours or even days. A spokesperson for Los Angeles International Airport said in an email:"Early this morning, the FlyLAX.com website was partially disrupted," but that it didn't affect flights.
A spokesperson for the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency, the federal government’s main cybersecurity agency, declined to comment. The U.S. Department of Transportation and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
