Meta AI The correct answer is D. Change the default community string names. SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) uses community strings as passwords to authenticate access to network devices. The default community strings are well-known ("public" for read-only access and "private" for read-write access), making them easily guessable by attackers. Changing the default community string names to strong, unique passwords will significantly improve SNMP security.
