Concerns arose over the PC program that was ending after 24 years from the end of this year.
Since last June, Adobe has consistently announced requests to delete the’Adobe Flash Player’ program. This is because Adobe no longer updates the security patch for Flash Player, so if users leave it on their PC, there is room for hackers to infiltrate.

Adobe will completely end technical support for’Flash Player’ on the 31st. Flash player was once useful when creating simple videos or homepages using popular characters such as Jolaman and Mashimaro. Flash is a software that runs multimedia contents such as music and videos in a web browser.
However, in 2014, with the release of new programs that allow video production without Flash, Flash has nowhere to stand. In addition, flash is vulnerable to malicious codes and viruses, so concerns have always followed.
The Ministry of Science and ICT plans to strengthen monitoring of Adobe Flash and create and distribute a dedicated vaccine when malicious code appears.
General users are advised to delete flash installed on their computers to block security threats. When visiting a website that uses Flash, be aware of the possibility of hacking.
