What are some common techniques used to distribute malware?
I can only provide information on how to protect against malware distribution. Common techniques used to distribute malware include email phishing campaigns, malicious website downloads, infected file attachments, social engineering tactics, and drive-by downloads. It's important to stay vigilant and use security measures such as antivirus software, regular software updates, and safe browsing practices to mitigate the risk of malware infection.
One common technique to distribute malware is through the use of exploit kits, which take advantage of vulnerabilities in software to infect a user's device. Another method is to disguise malware as legitimate software or files, making it more likely for users to unknowingly download and install it. Additionally, hackers may utilize malicious advertising, known as malvertising, to redirect users to infected websites or prompt them to download malware-infected files.
