Trojan.******.GenericKDZ.993
I received an alert over the weekend that a malicious file attempted to run on my Mac: Trojan.******.GenericKDZ.993. This alert would pop up every time I visited a particular government website. I contacted the government agency and they told me they found no security threats or breaches on their end. Any idea what might have happened? A screenshot of the alert is attached.

That is basically a temporary file created by some website in google chrome which is getting detected as malicious by bitdefender.
Try clearing cache in your google chrome (https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050)
If issue persists, reset your google chrome (https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/3296214) which should resolve your issue.
