Some common techniques for distributing malware include phishing emails, where attackers send emails pretending to be from a reputable source and tricking users into clicking on malicious links or downloading infected attachments. Another method is drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded when a user visits a compromised website. Malvertising is also a popular technique, where malware is distributed through online advertisements that contain malicious code.
