1 month agoIndia reveals GPS spoofing at eight major airports
As The Register has previously reported, attackers who wish to jam GPS broadcast a radio signal that can drown out the weak beams that come down from navigation satellites. Spoofing a signal sees attackers transmit inaccurate location information so receivers can't calculate their actual position. Either technique means pilots can't rely on satellite navigation - doing so could be catastrophic - and must instead find their way using other means.
