Some common techniques used to distribute malware include phishing emails, where attackers send fake emails pretending to be a legitimate organization to trick users into clicking on malicious links or downloading infected attachments. Another method is through drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's computer when they visit a compromised website. Additionally, attackers may also use social engineering tactics, such as enticing users to download and install malicious software disguised as legitimate applications.
