	"plain_text": "WestJet investigates cyberattack disrupting internal systems\r\nBy Lawrence Abrams\r\nPublished: 2025-06-14 · Archived: 2026-04-05 20:49:19 UTC\r\nWestJet, Canada's second-largest airline, is investigating a cyberattack that has disrupted access to some internal systems as\r\nit responds to the breach.\r\n\"WestJet is aware of a cybersecurity incident involving internal systems and the WestJet app, which has restricted access for\r\nseveral users,\" reads a security advisory on WestJet's site.\r\n\"We have activated specialized internal teams in cooperation with law enforcement and Transport Canada to investigate the\r\nmatter and limit impacts.\"\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/westjet-investigates-cyberattack-disrupting-internal-systems/\r\nPage 1 of 3\n\n0:00\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/westjet-investigates-cyberattack-disrupting-internal-systems/\r\nPage 2 of 3\n\nVisit Advertiser websiteGO TO PAGE\r\n\"We are expediting efforts to maintain the safety of our operation and safeguard sensitive data and personal information for\r\nboth our guests and employees, and we apologize to all guests for any disruption to their access to WestJet's services.\"\r\nThe attack also prevented users from logging into the website and mobile app, with those services now restored.\r\nA Saturday morning update says the company's operation continues to run safely, but the attack has impacted access to some\r\nof its software and services.\r\nIt is unclear if the loss of access to its systems is caused by a ransomware attack that encrypted those devices or if they shut\r\nthem to prevent the spread of the breach.\r\nBleepingComputer contacted WestJet with questions about the beach but has not received a reply at this time.\r\nAutomated Pentesting Covers Only 1 of 6 Surfaces.\r\nAutomated pentesting proves the path exists. BAS proves whether your controls stop it. Most teams run one without the\r\nother.\r\nThis whitepaper maps six validation surfaces, shows where coverage ends, and provides practitioners with three diagnostic\r\nquestions for any tool evaluation.\r\nSource: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/westjet-investigates-cyberattack-disrupting-internal-systems/\r\nhttps://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/westjet-investigates-cyberattack-disrupting-internal-systems/\r\nPage 3 of 3",
