It's currently running on port 443. I'm pretty sure that all the scans I've seen so far are targeted at https webservers, and unlikely to be a problem in this case. Keeping on top of the security updates is, of course, still absolutely essential. The point is that the exposure to no-thought-required, scripted exploits (which seems to cover the majority of cases) is greatly reduced. As always, YMMV.
