### REPLY:
There are several techniques commonly used to distribute malware. One method is through phishing emails, where the attacker sends deceptive emails containing malicious attachments or links. Another technique is drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's computer when they visit a compromised website. Malicious advertisements, also known as malvertising, can also be used to distribute malware by injecting malicious code into legitimate online advertisements.
