Hi, that suspicious Cloud indicates that a file is on your system that does not match a known virus definition.  As new virus threats are discovered your Anti-virus is updated with new virus definitions.

  To help protect you against a new undiscovered virus Norton compares the files with it's history by  thousands of other users.  If nothing is known about it but it isn't sure what it is it flags it as suspicious.

  It could be a brand new legitimate application or a brand new virus. Until something is found out about it Norton chooses to protect on the in case.

 

  An example-Libreoffice came out with a new version.  I chose to update my libreoffice the first few hours it was released.  Norton saw a file it contained and blocked it because no one else had the file of it's many thousand users., it had no known history.  I waited a couple days until it determined it was safe and I was able to download it fine.

If you'll do a search with Bing or Google this alert seems to be limited to Norton users and it appears to possibly be a "false positive" report.
