UK Train Stations Hit by Cyberattack Displaying Islamophobic Messages

Public Wi-Fi at 20 major railway stations was taken offline after passengers were shown Islamophobic content in a coordinated cyberattack.

British Transport Police have arrested a Global Reach Technologies employee on suspicion of computer misuse and malicious communications.
The cyberattack affected public Wi-Fi at major stations including Manchester Piccadilly, Birmingham New Street, and 10 London terminuses.
Network Rail suspended Wi-Fi services at the affected stations while investigations are ongoing, with no personal data reported compromised.
The messages displayed referenced past terrorist attacks in Europe and sparked concerns among passengers attempting to log onto the network.
Network Rail and its service providers expect to restore Wi-Fi services by the weekend after completing final security checks.
