GetX64BTIT.exe is an executable that essentially could hide any payload within it. To be precise, an EXE file can be named as anything by malware authors.

However, most samples of the GetX64BTIT.exe virus turned out to be stealthy, which means that, without a robust security application, it can run for a prolonged time without displaying any symptoms. It is important to note that Trojan makes thousands of changes within an operating system, which can result in the following strange behavior of the infected machine:

• Various system or program-related errors;
• Blue Screen of Death^[1] errors;
• Random system reboots;
• Programs crashing;
• Apps failing to launch;
• Stuttering, freezing, or lag, etc.

The main goal of the Trojan can differ depending on its payload. However, judging by its detections, it is clear that its main goal is to deliver additional malware. Therefore, if GetX64BTIT.exe is allowed to run on the system for a prolonged time, it can infect machines with ransomware, rootkits, viruses, coinminers, backdoors ^[2], and other malicious software, each of which could perform a variety of nefarious tasks.

For example, Trojans are often used to create a botnet – each of the infected machines is used to distribute spam to other victims that would infect them with the same or other malware. Stealthy parasites are also often used by cybercriminals to spy on users' personal information, such as banking data, login credentials, and much more.

Without a doubt, information leaks can end really badly for users in the long term (identity theft, lost money, credit score corruption, etc.). Considering that the infection can also bring additional payloads, it is important to remove GetX64BTIT.exe Trojan as soon as possible.
