Error message re Kirill Luzanov?

I have a 2019 27" Imac and just attached my iPhone to download some images from my iphone. I am getting a message saying something about "Kirill Luzanov" which I suspect is something to do with Drive DX I loaded onto the iMac?


Seems to look like Russian which I do not trust.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated


I have just purchased a new MacBook Pro and am very reluctant to load any 3rd party, non Apple, software of any sort


iMac 27″

It really helps to have the complete full message since we are not mind readers. Post a screenshot so we can the whole message window since the window can provide some clues as well & if the message is not in English, then please also post the complete text version of the message in addition to the screenshot so we can have it translated.


A quick search does seem to suggest that "Kirill Luzanov" is the registered developer for DriveDx and obviously has an Apple developer account in good standing with Apple, otherwise the DriveDx app would not pass Gatekeeper's verification check in macOS.


Keep in mind your iPhone would be seen as an external drive which can explain any drive related apps wanting to check out connected device (depends on how the apps are configured).
