What is Trojan horse dropper?

A Trojan horse dropper is a type of malware that disguises itself as a legitimate program or file to trick users into executing it. Once activated, it installs additional malicious software onto the victim's system, often without their knowledge. This can lead to data theft, system compromise, or further infection by more harmful malware. Essentially, the dropper acts as a vehicle for delivering other malicious payloads.
