IBM SPSS is a statistical software that offers predictive analytics, machine learning algorithms, and text analysis. The program was developed by IBM for users in research and development, government agencies, and data management. It can integrate and deploy information to other data processing programs to minimize the risks researchers take to. If you install any version of SPSS Statistics for the first time on Catalina 10.15, you will run into this issue because SPSS Statistics is not yet notarized by Apple. You may see a warning message such as the following.
In Apple's most recent macOS versions, changes to security and application policies mean that IBM SPSS 25 requires additional configuration to install, license and run.
This guide will show you the steps required to complete this configuration. The estimated time to complete this guide is 10-15 minutes. If you prefer, you can view the guide with screenshots.
