Some common techniques used for malware distribution include phishing emails, where attackers send fraudulent emails that appear to be from a legitimate source to trick users into downloading malicious attachments or clicking on malicious links. Another technique is 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 techniques to trick users into downloading and installing malware through fake software updates or deceptive advertisements.
