Malware delivery

In the software security industry, the activity of an attacker to spread and compromise a system is called a malware campaign. There are various ways that malware gets into a system. The most common way that these malware executable files are delivered is through an email attachment sent to its target user(s). As communication technology changes, the logistics that these campaigns implement adapt to whatever technology there is. This includes looking for vulnerabilities in the target system and penetrating it with exploits.
