What techniques can be used to distribute malware?

### REPLY:
There are several techniques that can be used to distribute malware. One common method is through phishing emails, where the attacker sends an email pretending to be a trusted entity and tricks the victim into clicking on a malicious link or downloading an infected attachment. Another method is through drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded when a user visits a compromised website. Additionally, malware can be distributed through malicious ads, infected software downloads, or by exploiting vulnerabilities in software or operating systems.
