Vulnerabilities in Windows Web Experience Pack and C++ Application Develoment Framework

I am dealing with a hacker that is exploiting vulnerabilties in these 2 apps in windows. They were calling a location update using these apps and the NIC would drop out and come back. Im not in the know on how to report exploits. I personally dont have the knowledge to win this battle. I hope someone could help me out with this issue.

    Use Windows Defender or other reputable security tools (e.g., Malwarebytes, Norton) to perform a full system scan. Check Windows Event Viewer and Network logs for any suspicious activity related to the exploits. Use Process Explorer or Task Manager to identify any unfamiliar processes running during the attack.
