Use of alternative embedded http server for standalone/service server

Hi!

It would be nice If We can use an alternative http server than IndyHttp Server component with UniGUI, for example Secure Blackbox, IPWorks or even Clever Components.

It's known to all that Indy HTTP server, is a good server component but lacks of some security features that are mandatorial thesse days and We need to implement ourselves, task that are more hard because we need to know how to minimize risk and implement on code, and with the closed-source aproarch of UniGUI is more dificult to do.

The other servers components have inside some of thesse features available from start and have good updates of it.

I know that I can use Apache or IIS with UniGUI, but there are some implementations where this aproach is not possible and a embedded http server is required. And the security broke occurs however.

Before that I had customer that are banks, I didn't worry much about security. Only a HTTPS certificate was enough, but now I get constant auditing notes of my web applications.

Hello, i'm not opposed to your suggestion, rather I'm curious what difficulties you're having in implementing security methods and if I can help. Here's a thread you might find useful
