I have certain users who need to run a Java based application that is started from a JNLP file. The issue is that when they click on it, the built in malware scanner in MacOS Catalina blocks it. Normally they would go to System Preferences --> Security & Privacy --> General and then select to allow it to run. However, this is not available to them.
Is there a way for me to set a preference or change a setting to allow this file to run, without me having to visit each machine and without the user having to do anything?

Hi @kknuckles
I used this:
##GateKeeper whitelisting
xattr -lr /path_to_JNLP_file/app.JNLP
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /path_to_JNLP_file/app.JNLP
/KC
