- Acquia implemented Drupal Steward protection across its entire Drupal Cloud platform, protecting thousands of the world’s largest sites with the most up-to-date security and vulnerability fixes
- Malicious requests are blocked, giving IT teams the time they need to test and implement security updates on their own timelines
Digital experience company Acquia today announced that it is renewing its founding partnership support of the Drupal Steward Program, a web application firewall introduced by the Drupal Association and operated jointly with the Drupal Security team. Acquia implemented Drupal Steward protection across its entire Drupal Cloud platform, protecting thousands of the world’s largest sites with the most up-to-date security and vulnerability fixes.
Malicious requests are blocked, giving IT teams the time they need to test and implement security updates on their own timelines. For instance, in November 2020, Drupal Steward implemented protection against a critical remote code execution vulnerability, immediately protecting Acquia’s customers.
Robert Former, Chief Information Security Officer at Acquia said, “We’re pleased to be a part of this novel program to address always-evolving security risks. Our customers understand that if there’s a critical security vulnerability, they’ll be the first to benefit from enterprise-level support working with Acquia through Drupal Steward. Participation in Drupal Steward is a core part of Acquia’s overarching commitment to deliver the most secure solution for hosting enterprise Drupal applications.”
