“Des Moines International Airport was one of at least a dozen around the country whose websites were targeted by pro-Russian hackers Monday morning. “
“Kovarna said the airport was open and that the outage on the website, which is housed on an off-site server, had no effect on operations. The website appeared to be back online around 10:15 a.m. “
“Pro-Russian hacking group Killnet targeted at least 14 airport websites Monday, according to CNN. The attacks were of the denial-of-service variety, where an attacker floods a target with fake traffic to overwhelm computer servers and knock them offline. Killnet claimed responsibility last week for disabling some U.S. state government websites, according to CNN.“
