What are some common techniques used to distribute malware?

### REPLY:
One common technique to distribute malware is through phishing emails, where attackers send deceptive emails to trick users into clicking on malicious links or downloading infected attachments. Another method is through malicious websites or compromised legitimate websites, where visitors unknowingly download malware onto their devices. Additionally, malware can be distributed through drive-by downloads, where simply visiting a compromised website can automatically download and install malware without the user's knowledge or consent.
