Some common techniques used in malware distribution include phishing emails, where attackers send emails pretending to be from a legitimate source to trick users into downloading 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. Malvertising is also a method where malware is spread through malicious advertisements on legitimate websites.
