RE: FLASH: How secure is a .swf file?

[Benny [ Atelier Pieter van den Berg - freemonk.com ]]

Hi Laura,


With the right tool it's no problem at all to decompile any swf file out

there. Don't forget the Macromedia Flash format is an open format. The

protection tag in your movie protects your work only against import into

Macromedia's Flash authoring tool. Any developer or hacker can break this

easy.


Flash on it's own is not suited as a security solution.
