What does /usr/libexec/ASPCarryLog do?

I suspected I have malware, and when going through the running processes I found:

/usr/libexec/ASPCarryLog

Nothing on Google to be found anywhere on it. Is this malware? What does this process do?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13

Is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac or EtreCheck safe applications to download? I believe there may be some adware/malware installed on my Mac. I've explored apple support community to get an idea of what I should do. However, I read one discussion ("Effective defenses against malware and other threats") that warned against installing antivirus/anti-malware programs. However, I've read other discussions that suggested installing Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac or EtreCheck to check for and remove adware/malware. Are those programs actually safe to install? If not, I should I go about resolving the issue?

Malware I believe I have accidentally downloaded MacEnizer malware onto my computer and it’s behaving strangely. Like when I open Google Chrome there is a page there looks similar to its homepage but it just says Search. I’m afraid that my files and information are very compromised and I don’t know what to do. I’ve already tried dragging and dropping into the trash and it still seems to be a problem. Please Help!

In Terminal,

man ASPCarryLog

Almost everything in /usr/libexec is Restricted by SIP, so you would have had to disable SIP to install malware in there.
