Digital Accessibility (ADA) and Cybersecurity: More Connected Than You Think

Most teams treat accessibility and security as two separate checkboxes. They’re not. Both come down to the same core discipline, knowing exactly who can access your systems, how, and why.

In this short, I break down why ADA compliance and infosec aren’t as far apart as people assume, and why treating them together, instead of bolting accessibility on at the end, actually makes your systems more secure.

I go deeper on this in The Five Pillars of Information Security (And Why We Audit Accessibility). For the underlying term, see Document Accessibility in the Rietta Glossary, and for how we audit it, see our ADA/WCAG Document Accessibility Audits.
