To mitigate the risks associated with weak MAC algorithms, consider the following recommendations:

1. **Disable Weak MAC Algorithms:**
   - Disable support for weak MAC algorithms such as MD5 and SHA1.
   - Enable only strong MAC algorithms like SHA256, SHA384, or SHA512.

2. **Configure Strong Cipher Suites:**
   - Use cipher suites that incorporate strong MAC algorithms.
   - Disable cipher suites that use weak MAC algorithms.

3. **Implement Secure TLS Configuration:**
   - Follow industry best practices for TLS configuration, such as those provided by Mozilla's SSL Configuration Generator or OWASP's TLS Cheat Sheet.
   - Regularly test your TLS configuration using tools like SSL Labs' SSL Server Test.

4. **Use HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS):**
   - Implement HSTS to ensure that clients always connect to your server using HTTPS, preventing downgrade attacks.

5. **Consider TLS 1.3:**
   - If possible, enable support for TLS 1.3, which uses more secure MAC algorithms by default.

**Example configurations for common web servers:**

=== "Apache"
   ```apache
   SSLProtocol             all -SSLv3 -TLSv1 -TLSv1.1
   SSLCipherSuite          ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
   SSLHonorCipherOrder     off
   SSLSessionTickets       off
   ```

=== "Nginx"
   ```nginx
   ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
   ssl_ciphers ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384;
   ssl_prefer_server_ciphers off;
   ```

=== "IIS"
   ```powershell
   New-Item 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server' -Force
   New-ItemProperty -path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server' -name 'Enabled' -value '1' -PropertyType 'DWord' -Force
   New-ItemProperty -path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server' -name 'DisabledByDefault' -value 0 -PropertyType 'DWord' -Force
   ```
