Selected Answer: B
B. 80 Port 80 is used for HTTP, which is unencrypted web traffic. Since the requirement is for all connections to the server to be encrypted, disabling port 80 (which facilitates unencrypted connections) would ensure that all web traffic to the server is encrypted, typically via HTTPS on port 443.
