Im having the same issue, any solution for this?
@adrianj12 commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2023):
You can work around this by clicking Cancel and then try opening it again, and it should give you an option to install anyway.
@alcristian commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2023):
Didnt work. If I cancel and try again, got the same message.
@adrianj12 commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2023):
Sorry, you can try Control + click on the app and select Open. Or go into settings: System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General and select "Open Anyway."

I installed via homebrew, and the only way I could fix it was by removing the com.apple.quarantine attribute on the app with xattr.
I'm not at my Mac now, so can't find the exact incantation, but it was along the lines of xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Barrier.app

I also have the same issue on Macos11 , however the workaround is to bypass the MacOS trust setting to enable applications from third party. ( This is just a workaround and the issue needs to be resolved from source )
I used the brew install —cask barrier to install the software.
the workaround using the UI of macOS is as follows
Apple Menu -> Preference -> Security & Privacy
in General Tab Click “open anyway” Button in response to the message
———> “ the “Barrier.app” was blocked from use because it is not from an identified developer.

I had the same issue installing as a brew cask. Workaround was easy, but it would be nice to have the developer key verified just for peace of mind
