Adobe Creative Cloud
All Faculty and Staff are now licensed for the Adobe Creative Cloud, which includes Adobe products such as Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Acrobat DC, and many others. This integration with Adobe allows ITS to simplify access by allowing Faculty and Staff users to authenticate to Adobe Creative Cloud with their AppState credentials using Shibboleth. You may sign into 2 computers at a time with your Adobe Enterprise ID.
