Does Adobe use FTP/SFTP/SSH methods to download updates to user accounts?

I work at a Veterans Affairs Medical Center.  I just learned through our Information Security Officer (ISO) that the VA Office of Information and Technology will soon begin restricting ports that allow File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and Secure Shell (SSH) methods as a way of safegarding the VA IT System.  Does anyone know *if* the updates that we receive and will begin to receive for future software updates will utilize these methods?

If so, I need assistance from someone at Adobe.com to help me submit an internal request , via our ISO, so we can keep our updates coming in.  We recently purchased Adobe Creative Suite 6.1 and are in the process of installing it -- this happened right before Adobe announced the Adobe Creative Cloud would replace all Creative Suites.

Thank you,
