What is CSExattrCryptoService in Activity Monitor?

[EedyBeedyBeeps]

Just noticed it under Finder (hierarchically) in Activity Monitor, in Sonoma 14.0. Anyone know what it is?

I have no idea what it is, just that it starts randomly and makes the fans of my Intel Mac go up like crazy. Then suddenly, it disappears. Has anyone know what is this?
