AWS.exe is a malicious Windows PE masquerading as a legitimate Amazon Web Services component. The sample is flagged as malicious by 49/70 AV vendors and exhibits behavior consistent with AsyncRAT-like malware.

C2 communication evidence:
The malware contacts multiple external domains including
gemwin.me, www.gemwin.me, allclean.jp.net, davidwilliam.uk.com, and tourne.eu.com. While some domains appear aged, their combined usage and grouping indicate shared attacker-controlled infrastructure rather than legitimate AWS services.

Observed network activity, together with debugger detection, long sleep delays, and obfuscation, strongly indicates active C2 communication for remote control and botnet operations.
