What are some common distribution methods used by malware creators?
Malware creators commonly use methods such as phishing emails, infected websites, malicious ads, social engineering, and software vulnerabilities to distribute malware.
Malware creators often use exploit kits that take advantage of software vulnerabilities, especially in outdated software versions. They also utilize drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded when a user visits an infected website without their knowledge or consent. Additionally, they may use botnets to distribute malware through spam emails or targeted phishing campaigns.
