ADSB outage caused by cybersecurity concerns.

A clarification...

The ADS-B system itself wasn't out of service, only a software tool that allows operators without WAAS to determine whether non-WAAS GPS accuracy is good enough for operations in ADS-B airspace. This tool is used mostly by airlines that haven't upgraded their GPSs.

If you use a WAAS position source for your ADS-B Out transponder, you weren't affected.

Dave,
Understood. But the reason why I posted this is to express my concerns and highlight the vulnerability of our personal information during a potential cyber threat. I have edited the original post for clarity.
