Explanation
According to the CrowdStrike Falcon Devices Add-on for Splunk Installation and Configuration Guide v3.1.5+, the Process Timeline tool allows you to view all cloudable events associated with a given process, such as process creation, network connections, file writes, registry modifications, etc1. The tool requires two parameters: aid (agent ID) and TargetProcessId_decimal (the decimal value of the process ID)1. You can jump to a Process Timeline from many views, such as Hash Search, Host Timeline, Event Search, etc., by clicking on either the Process ID or Parent Process ID fields in those views1. This will automatically populate the aid and TargetProcessId_decimal parameters for the Process Timeline tool1.

Explanation
According to the CrowdStrike Falcon Devices Add-on for Splunk Installation and Configuration Guide v3.1.5+, the Hash Execution Search tool allows you to search for one or more SHA256 hashes and view a summary of information from Falcon events that contain those hashes1. The summary includes the hostname, sensor ID, OS, country, city, ISP, ASN, and geolocation of the host that loaded or executed those hashes1. You can also see a count of detections and incidents related to those hashes1.

Explanation
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.

Explanation
According to the CrowdStrike Falcon Devices Add-on for Splunk Installation and Configuration Guide v3.1.5+, the Process Timeline search returns all cloudable events associated with a given process, such as process creation, network connections, file writes, registry modifications, etc1. This allows you to see a comprehensive view of what a process was doing on a host1.

Explanation
According to the CrowdStrike Falcon Data Replicator (FDR) Add-on for Splunk Guide, the allowlist feature allows you to exclude files or directories from being scanned or blocked by CrowdStrike's machine learning engine or indicators of attack (IOAs)2. This can reduce false positives and improve performance2. When you allowlist a hash, you are allowing that file to execute on any host that belongs to your organization's CID (customer ID)2. This does not affect other Falcon customers or hosts outside your CID2.
