According to the CrowdStrike Falcon Devices Add-on for Splunk Installation and Configuration Guide v3.1.5+, global prevalence is a field that indicates how frequently the hash of a file is seen across all CrowdStrike customer environments1. A global prevalence of common means that the file is widely distributed and likely benign1. However, if you do not know what the executable is, you may want to investigate it further to confirm its legitimacy and functionality1. One way to do that is to click the VT Hash button from the detection, which will pivot you to VirusTotal, a service that analyzes files and URLs for viruses, malware, and other threats1. You can then see more information about the file, such as its name, size, type, signatures, detections, comments, etc1.
