“The airline also told us that there was no hack of any Delta system, including the in-flight Wi-Fi, though it did confirm that an unauthorized Wi-Fi network was broadcast onboard the aircraft for a short period of time.”
Delta says nothing was hacked, then confirms a rogue network called DELTA WIFI FAST was broadcasting inside the cabin. Both statements can be true and neither one is comforting. Nobody has been identified or charged yet, and the Communications Act count on the table carries up to a year. Standing up a phishing access point at 35,000 feet on the flight home from a hacker conference is how a con turns into a federal case.
