Although I don't know what your market outlook is, the most likely way to protect this position now is with a Bear Spread or what is also called a protective collar.

That is selling a higher strike call (than the current market price of the stock) and purchasing a lower strike put (than the current market price of the stock). This position will offer some protection if you are concerned with the market moving lower but not at a dramatic pace.
