Safari is damaged message following Ventura installation

Following installation of Ventura 13.0 (I have a MacBook Pro 2019 with 2.8 GHz Quad-core intel processor) I'm getting an intermittent message box stating: "Safari is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the trash". Does anyone know what it the cause of this pop-up box. I am able to open safari and am posting this question through the Safari browser. Do I need to worry that Safari will eventually fail. Any feedback would be appreciated.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.0

Greetings Stephen Hunt1, 


For the message you’re encountering, we’re going to recommend you begin with the following article If Safari on Mac doesn't open a webpage or isn’t working as expected


Specifically, checking extensions and pop-ups. 


Check Safari extensions
If you installed any Safari extensions, make sure that they are up to date.

You can also try turning extensions off. From the menu bar in Safari, choose Safari > Settings (or Preferences). Click Extensions, then deselect the checkbox for each extension to turn it off. Learn more about Safari extensions. 

Check Safari settings
The webpage might not be compatible with one or more browser settings, which you can turn on or off as needed. From the menu bar in Safari, choose Safari > Settings (or Preferences). Then click Websites, Privacy, or Security to access these settings:
• Websites settings. These settings can be configured for specific websites.
• Privacy settings. These settings apply to all websites.
• Security settings. These settings apply to all websites. 


Thanks.
