  2. From support.apple.com

    Apple can’t check app for malicious software

    Using an app that can’t be checked for malicious software might harm
    your Mac or compromise your privacy. If you’re certain that the app
    you want to use is from a trustworthy source, you can override your
    Mac security settings to open it.

    In the Finder on your Mac, locate the app you want to open.
    
    Don’t use Launchpad to locate the app.
    
    Control-click the app icon, then choose Open from the shortcut menu.
    
    Click Open.
    
    The app is saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it at any time by double-clicking it, just as you do with
    

    any registered app.
