where is the plist with the Gatekeeper info?

[carmelolopez]

Hi,
I want to make a package with Allow Applications Downloaded form: Anywhere enable by default.

So I need to find out where the .plist is to modify and make a package
Or do a default write..

Thanks
Carmelo

1. Are you sure you want to do this?

Hi,
Yes indeed I want to. Or at least I know now how to add manually some software we run inhouse (Cisco Anyconnect,etc) that it is blocked by this
Thanks!!!

sudo spctl --master-disable

You can turn off gatekeeper with the spctl binary, but it might be more advantageous to use spctl to specifically (and programmatically) allow the apps you want to be white listed without end user intervention.

```
spctl --add --label "White List by policy XYZ on yy/mm/dd" /Applications/Whatever.app
```

A nice article on spctl and defaults was written by Charles Edge at http://krypted.com/mac-os-x/manage-gatekeeper-from-the-command-line-in-mountain-lion/. Also, you could disable the launch services quarantine as well as those subsystems are not common.
