Adobe Creative Cloud installer is flagging as Malicious

Hello,

We attempted to run the latest available Adobe Creative Cloud available from the Admin Console and our antivirus software (FortiEDR) flagged the installer as malicious due to a handful of unsigned files. Is this a known issue? Please advise.

Thanks!

Hello @jonathonr21308024 

The package created from the admin console is not notarized/signed but the package downloaded by the Adobe Package Downloader on the Mac device will take care of Apple's requirements and the app installers themselves are all properly signed.

Hi TechBurner, sorry for the confusion. This was flagged by FortiEDR on a Windows 10 based PC, not a Mac. Therefore, our environment doesn't fall under the purview of Apple's requirements.

Then I think it is expected behavior as the packages from the Admin Console is not notarized or signed.
