Percentage of total bandwidth consumed by applications not using tcp/80?
Only 19% of the total bandwidth is being consumed by 195 (27% of 734) applications that DO NOT USE port 80 at all.
Ever.
19%

Port 80 only security is shortsighted. The common perception is that Port 80 (tcp/80) is where all the traffic and all
the problems are. A port 80 emphasis is an absolute requirement; but too much focus is shortsighted.
