Some common techniques used to distribute malware include phishing emails, where attackers send deceptive emails with malicious attachments or links. Another method is drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's computer when they visit an infected website. Additionally, attackers may also use social engineering techniques, such as enticing users to download malware disguised as legitimate software or offering fake software updates.
