Hacking Team is a Milan-based technology company that produces controversial software for law enforcement and government agencies to monitor internet usage and browsing by individual users. The group Hacking Team reportedly utilized three different routes to breach the plugin and Mozilla has said they would keep Flash blocked until Adobe repairs all issues that have made them susceptible to hackers. Mozilla Firefox has decided to place a temporary ban on Adobe Flash Player on Windows as well as on iOS platforms.
