Ten of London’s biggest railway stations have had their Wi-Fi networks hacked in another “cyber security incident” hitting the transport network, only days after Transport for London was attacked.
Police are investigating after the attack on internet services at 19 stations across the UK managed by the Network Rail.
Network Rail confirmed that the wi-fi systems at stations including London Euston, Manchester Piccadilly, Liverpool Lime Street, Birmingham New Street, Edinburgh Waverley and Glasgow Central were affected.
People logging on to the wi-fi at the stations on Wednesday saw with a screen about terror attacks in Europe.
A Network Rail spokesperson told London’s Evening Standard: “We are currently dealing with a cyber security incident affecting the public Wi-Fi at Network Rail’s managed stations. This service is provided via a third party and has been suspended while an investigation is underway.”
