Answer :

CPED

Answer:

He should disable UPnP technology to disallow devices to dynamically add themselves to the network without configuration.

Explanation:

  • UPnP stands for Universal Plug n Play.
  • It is an easiest way that allows gadgets to find all other devices connecting to your network.
  • This can also modify router settings to allow devices from outside the network to access the router.
  • External IP address can also be obtained by the gadget and a new port forwarding map can be set
  • So from all perspectives, UPnP is an open invitation for hackers to scan for the ports and hack into the device.
  • UPnP is a vulnerability to the secure system
