HIGHER ED SUMMIT | How Acquia and Drupal Power Robust, Modern, and Secure Digital Experiences

Sam Pettinati

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, higher education institutions face the dual challenge of managing complex website infrastructure while ensuring security and governance. Drupal and Acquia Site Factory emerge as pivotal solutions offering a comprehensive platform to address these needs.

The journey begins with strategic migration planning, where Acquia enables institutions to seamlessly transition to a more scalable web presence. This process is both about data transfer, and reimagining the digital face of higher education to better serve students, faculty, alumni, and visitors.

Central to successful implementation is scalable governance. Acquia provides a framework for establishing consistent, secure, and high-quality digital experiences across all university touchpoints. This governance model is built into the platform, ensuring compliance and best practices are fortified from the outset.

Security is of utmost importance with projects of this scale. With advanced features like Web Application Firewall (WAF) and Content Delivery Network (CDN), Acquia delivers a fortified digital environment, protecting sensitive data and safeguarding against cyber threats.

Moreover, Acquia's ecosystem is enriched with a suite of add-ons and integrations designed to enhance digital experiences for improved engagement. These tools are integral from the start, ensuring a comprehensive solution that meets the modern web's demands.
