Some common techniques used to distribute malware include email phishing campaigns, where attackers send malicious emails pretending to be legitimate organizations or individuals. Another technique is drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's device when they visit a compromised website. Additionally, attackers may use social engineering tactics to trick users into downloading and installing malware through fake software updates or deceptive advertisements.
