Windows Defender warning for self created .exe

Hello,

I have created a very simple .exe using python and py2exe that simply prints "hello" to console. However, when uploaded to sharepoint and redownloaded, I get the following warning. If I wanted to share this with others in my organization, the same thing occurs. Is it possible to avoid this warning? I am wondering if its because I/ my organization is not a reqistered publisher?

thanks,
Florence

    I think and could be wrong, if you get valid signature from Microsoft for the app, this stops. However, even Process Explorer does this when it can't access the Internet and that has a valid certificate. Run Process Explorer with no Internet connection and SmartScreen pops up.
