You would need to turn on the security programs again which you had disabled. Important Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Most attacks are done from port used by SSDP, with clever threat actors using a malicious payload was from a randomized port. Configuring port forwarding is not easy, but it is also not rocket science. Anyone with the desire to learn how to configure network devices without UPnP can do it, as the Internet contains many guides on how to configure port-forwarding.
PlayStation and Xbox can also be security hardened by not depending on UPnP, as the port forwarding configurations are set in the home router, hence the complexity of configuration only has to happen once.
