  * Using \Drupal\file\Element\ManagedFile field with a defined list of allowed
  * extensions is best way to provide a file upload field. It will ensure that:
  * - File names are sanitized by the FileUploadSanitizeNameEvent event.
- * - Files are validated by hook implementations of hook_file_validate().
+ * - Files are validated by \Drupal\file\Validation\FileValidatorInterface().
  * - Files with insecure extensions will be blocked by default even if they are
  *   listed. If .txt is an allowed extension such files will be renamed.
