What are some common techniques used to distribute malware?

### REPLY:
One common technique to distribute malware is through phishing emails, where attackers send emails pretending to be a trusted source and trick users into downloading malicious attachments. Another method is using exploit kits, which exploit vulnerabilities in software to silently install malware on a victim's computer. Additionally, attackers can use social engineering tactics, such as pretending to be tech support or offering free software, to trick users into downloading and installing malware.
