Web

Some information on the websites that Cattaraugus County maintains.

We create most of the websites using the Drupal website framework and you may see the text "Powered by Drupal". Using Drupal has allowed us to extend and build the sites that we want to see.

Many enterprises, governments, and educational institutions use Drupal.

Security

But what makes Drupal 8 such a secure choice? The biggest driver often seems counter-intuitive at first, but Drupal’s open-source nature means that its code is fully available to anyone for auditing and evaluation. Unlike a commercial solution that is tightly controlled and may only be fully available to the for-profit entity that produces it, Drupal’s core code – as well as that of many of its contributed modules – is under constant scrutiny by the community, which even includes a team dedicated entirely to such concerns.
