Hackers hit Vietnam airports with South China Sea messages

The final frontier: Space presents a double opportunity for hackers

HANOI: Hackers attacked the website of a national airline and flight information screens at Vietnam's two biggest airports on July 29, posting notices that state media said criticised the Philippines and Vietnam and their claims in the South China Sea. 

Operators of airports in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City briefly had to halt electronic check-ins when systems were attacked on the afternoon of July 29, the country's civil aviation authority said.
