available. This will ensure you always have
the latest security updates.
• If the feature is available, enable automatic
updates for future releases.
Disable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) on your
router.
• UPnP enabled on a router can limit the
effectiveness of your firewall by allowing other
network devices to open inbound ports without
any intervention or approval from you. A virus
or other malware program could use this
function to compromise security for the entire
network.
