It's a wear item part of the brake-pad not a part of the caliper.
Probably just surface corrosion due to the harsh environment.
I noticed it for the first time today when washing this morning, but I swear last month it was perfectly shiney & rust free.

Exactly my thought dint notice it until today, So was curious if it was normal or not but as we all know corrosion left unchecked have a tendency to spread or rust through considering this car is at this point 10 months old gets me worried about other parts.
