- Bind the service to localhost or a private network, never to a public address.
- Enable authentication, use per-application accounts and require TLS.
- Watch for exposed Docker ports: publish them on 127.0.0.1 only.

Which program uses port 4136, and is it reachable?
Linux
sudo ss -ltnup 'sport = :4136' # process listening on 4136
sudo lsof -nP -i :4136macOS
sudo lsof -nP -i :4136
Windows (PowerShell)

From another machine
nmap -p 4136 -sV <host> sudo nmap -sU -p 4136 <host> nc -zv <host> 4136
