HeroDevs Named Inaugural Partner for Drupal 7 Extended Security Support Provider Program

[SANDY, UTAH]—HeroDevs is excited to announce its designation as the inaugural partner for the Drupal Association’s new Drupal 7 Extended Security Support Provider Program.

At HeroDevs, we are creating a more sustainable, secure web and Drupal is a major part of that. We aim to help organizations maintain a secure and compliant web presence – all while giving open source creators and maintainers the freedom to innovate.”
