Using non-genuine software poses a risk for individuals and organizations. Non-genuine software has frequently been modified leading to issues such as:
Invalid serial numbers are serial numbers that have been blocked by Adobe due to misuse. When Adobe discovers this fraudulent behavior, the invalid serial numbers are deactivated. Customers may only realize that a serial number has been deactivated when they attempt to install or reinstall the software, and should follow the instructions provided to address this issue.
Non-genuine software can work normally until Adobe identifies and deactivates the fraudulent serial number. Once the serial number is deactivated, future attempts to install or reinstall will fail.
Adobe runs validation tests and notifies individuals and organizations that are using non-genuine software. They check for software modifications and invalid licenses. If you or someone in your organization has received a notification, non-genuine software has been identified.
Adobe runs validation checks that identify if an installed Adobe app is genuine or non-genuine. When non-genuine apps are found the service can inform users through notifications, providing options to resolve the issue. In addition to notifications, customers may also see the validation process running in their Activity monitor (maocOS) or Task manager (Windows).
If you or someone in your organization has received a notification, it is because a software has been found that is not genuine.
If a user chooses to ignore notices and warnings, then Adobe may take appropriate additional action as necessary, including blocking access to the non-genuine software.
