Answer:

(D) Move the server to the DMZ of the firewall.

Explanation:

DMZ (demilitarized zone):-It is a logical or physical subnet that filters an internal LAN(Local area Network) from other networks that are not trusted.So by moving the server to the DMZ of the firewall is the best way to mitigate this kind of risk for the technician.
