I believe RDP is referring to Remote Desktop Protocol.

I'm gonna post a Wikipedia link which should give you some more information.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Desktop_Protocol

I don't know anything about this topic but hopefully you can get some information from this Wikipedia page while you wait for one of the forum team to respond.

Remote Desktop Protocol Server Notification

Remote Desktop Protocol is a screen sharing system that allows computers to be accessed remotely from another device on the internet.

If you’ve received one of these notifications, a device on your network might be running a Remote Desktop Protocol server that’s exposed to the wider internet. Older versions of the protocol don’t use encryption, so any information being passed to and from your device could be accessed by a third party.

To fix this issue, you can do one of the following:

• Update your Remote Desktop Protocol server
• Block port 3389 using your firewall
