Malware Propagation refers to the methods by which malicious software spreads from one system or network to another. This can occur through various vectors, including infected email attachments, compromised websites, exploitable software vulnerabilities, or peer-to-peer networks. Effective propagation is key to the success of many cyberattacks, including those targeting digital asset infrastructure.

News reports frequently detail incidents where malware has been used to drain user wallets or infiltrate exchanges, highlighting the persistent threat to digital asset security. Ongoing research focuses on developing advanced detection and prevention mechanisms to counter these evolving propagation techniques.
