Validate software

To help protect IT infrastructures, you can validate software packages that you download to ensure that they are free of tampering. You can also validate digital signatures that are applied to software packages.

P4 executables, packages, and package repos are digitally signed, with macOS binaries additionally notarized by Apple. Some files obtained through the Perforce portal can be verified by using the signatures placed in an adjacent file. For inquiries regarding a particular P4 product, contact Support by logging in to the Support portal.

Because API libraries are not digitally signed, double-check to ensure that you download API libraries only from the official Downloads site.
