Vital Boeing computer network INFECTED with WannaCry VIRUS - is it safe to fly?

eyes to the skies folks watch for them falling planes

Mr VanderWel said: “It is metastasising rapidly out of North Charleston and I just heard 777 (automated spar assembly tools) may have gone down.”

The chief engineer also expressed his worries about the virus “spreading to airplane software”, but at the moment it is believed the hack has been contained to production only.

The Boeing chief engineer emphasised that a “battery-like response” was needed to fix the problem.

just be cautious if you or family or friends are flying boeing in the next day or so.

I smell a "hacking" false flag.

yeah, i wouldn't worry. The vital systems are shielded and backed-up anyway. They don't let this kind of stuff be affected by viruses

IMHO...
It was probably the Chinese, stealing tech and other intel.

If they announced it, the threat has already been neutralized and most likely identified.

This was a message for those responsible, letting them know Boeing found the software.

Yes it is safe to fly
Wannacry simply encrypts windows files holding them hostage
It doesn’t allow remote access and in any case Air Traffic Control does not run their software on Windows

well thats good news at least

would not be surprised to hear hijack-viruses being pumped in the media (specific to airline or auto-drive women cars)

5 stars

I have 1000 times more respect of our pilots and the NTSB then the FBI. They would all rather come down themselves inflames before risking anyone on the ground.

The crap you have to go through to keep a bird in the air as opposed to keeping your brake pads in order on the ground tells us everything.

Fly by wire! Hell no!no more manual cable backup.........

lol

thanks. i agree also. pilots have a lot to handle once bird is up in the air.

yea,only blutooth virusses can bring one down,planes dont fly on windows.

This is it. It'll infect the block chain and your cryptos will vanish in the blink of an eye!

$100 million reward, in gold bullion (2,350 kg), now offered for actual perpetrators.

what are you tallking about?

You realise planes networks are isolated right?

Also that it was the manufacturing network ?

Wont affect planes in the sky. Go back to alternate fud.

it's been so long yet it's still infected?
