US GlobalX Airlines Hacked over Deportation Flights
INCIDENT
On May 5, 2025, hackers defaced one of the websites of GlobalX Airlines. The airline is at the center of a US campaign of deportations to an offshore detention center in El Salvador. Global Crossing Airlines Group Inc. immediately activated its incident response protocols. The Company notified law enforcement and is coordinating fully with them.
A message posted to a subdomain of GlobalX said the site had been hijacked by "Anonymous," a label often chosen to evoke rebellious cyber activism.
