Same as any other port really.
It's more "What are the advantages?"; port 80 is what any HTTPD should be running on, really.

Their really are no risks , you just have to make sure that you update the
server when new releases become available just in case. If you really want
to know how secure Abyss Web Server is , here's a quote.

Aprelium's sleepy Web server is an economic and reliable offering that provides advanced security, easy configuration, and support for most scripting languages. If you're looking for an Apache alternative, this is one to consider...

Running Abyss on port 80 keeps you from appending the port at the end of
the URL , port 80 is the default port for the HTTP Protocol. Have A Nice Day! |
