US probes cyber air link
U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the air navigation systems outage that led to flights being suspended on Friday was not the result of a cyberattack. The cause remains unknown, though a technical fault in routing equipment or a problem with some equipment during maintenance is considered likely. About 500 aircraft were in the air when the order to halt flights was issued; all landed safely, and air traffic returned to normal after the problem was fixed. Duffy called for an upgrade to the air traffic control system, noting that Congress had allocated $12.5 billion for the purpose but had not provided all the necessary funding.
