What are some common techniques used to distribute malware?

### REPLY:
One common technique to distribute malware is through phishing emails. By sending emails that appear to be from a legitimate source, hackers trick users into clicking on malicious links or downloading infected attachments. Another method is through drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's computer when they visit a compromised website. Additionally, hackers may also use social engineering techniques to convince users to download and install malware disguised as legitimate software.
