Please help us help you. What Apple device? What operating system is it running?

A quick web search suggests this is possibly a validation process for registering for online exams. Have you recently taken any online tests?

If it is related to adware, the free version of Malwarebytes will take care of it. It is the only third-party malware detector that most of the senior contributors here trust, because we know the developer.

To avoid more malware, get Malwarebyted ONLY from the developer's site: https://www.malwarebytes.com/mac

Thanks,

I turned VPN off in Norton Security which seem to overcome issue.

Very good. For future questions here PLEASE include what device is involved and its operating system version. Otherwise help can be slow in coming or non-existent.
