About This App

Adobe Genuine Software Integrity Service is a background security utility installed with Adobe Creative Cloud applications that periodically verifies whether your installed Adobe apps are genuine and properly licensed. It runs silently on your Mac and may display alerts if it detects unlicensed or non-genuine software. While it serves an important anti-piracy and security function for Adobe users, many Mac users find the periodic verification checks and pop-up notifications intrusive. This service is automatically installed alongside most Adobe applications and is difficult to remove without affecting your Adobe software.

Good news: Adobe Genuine Software Integrity Service v9.1.0.50 now runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs. This native version has been confirmed running on over 50 real devices in our community since April 2026. If you're on an Apple Silicon Mac, update to the latest version of your Adobe Creative Cloud apps — the service will update automatically as part of that bundle. You should experience no performance degradation and full compatibility with your system. If you're still on Intel, Rosetta 2 will continue to support this app, but upgrading when you can will give you the native experience. If you find the service intrusive, you can safely disable or remove it through your System Settings or Adobe Creative Cloud app preferences without affecting your other Adobe software.
