Rsync worst issue is someone port scanning and brute force their way into your system. Turn off your port.

Don't most consumer routers have all ports blocked? Who is connecting a computer directly to the modem these days?

Most of them do NAT, which isn't semantically the same as blocking all ports, but functionally it is.
