Glasgow Central station is being affected by a cyber security incident. 

Public Wi-Fi at the city centre train station has been hacked with users trying to access the network being met with a webpage titled 'We love you, Europe' followed by information about terror incidents and Islamophobic messages. 

It is understood that of the 20 stations managed by Network Rail, 19 including Glasgow Central are affected.

The issue first arose at around 5pm on Wednesday and the Wi-Fi was still down as of Thursday morning. 

An investigation into the incident is underway by British Transport Police. 

A Network Rail spokesperson, said: “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."

Telent is the Wi-Fi provider for the stations and they revealed that the incident was due to an "unauthorised" change made to the Network Rail Wi-Fi landing page by a 'legitimate' account from the admin team of Global Reach, which provides the Wi-Fi page.

No personal data has been affected and a criminal investigation remains ongoing by British Transport Police. 

Wi-Fi services were suspended so they could determine that no other customers of Telent were affected. 

A spokesperson for Telent said: "Following the incident affecting the public Wi-Fi at Network Rail’s managed stations, Telent have been working with Network Rail and other stakeholders.

"Through investigations with Global Reach, the provider of the Wi-Fi landing page, it has been identified that an unauthorised change was made to the Network Rail landing page from a legitimate Global Reach administrator account and the matter is now subject to criminal investigations by the British Transport Police.

"No personal data has been affected.

"As a precaution, Telent temporarily suspended all use of Global Reach services while verifying that no other Telent customers were impacted."

A British Transport Police spokesperson said: “We received reports at around 5.03pm yesterday (September 25) of a cyber-attack displaying Islamophobic messaging on some Network Rail Wi-Fi services.

"We are working alongside Network Rail to investigate the incident at pace."
