Our Commitment to Inclusive Software

Accessibility Compliance

Symbiant is committed to improving the accessibility of its GRC Software and ensuring it is usable by the widest possible audience, regardless of ability or technology. Symbiant currently partially conforms to WCAG 2.1 Level AA and is actively working toward full compliance with WCAG 2.2 AA and EN 301 549. Symbiant also supports public sector buyers in meeting their legal obligations under the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Current Accessibility Features

Where WCAG requirements expect features to be provided by the operating system or browser (such as zoom, magnification, colour modes and text scaling), Symbiant fully supports and responds correctly to those settings. All WCAG success criteria that apply directly to the platform’s own user interface are either met or are listed below as known limitations.

Limitations

The platform currently does not include:

  • Keyboard shortcuts
  • Custom tab indexing
  • ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) tags for screen readers

As a result, users who rely primarily on structured keyboard navigation or advanced assistive technologies may experience limitations. However, mitigations and reasonable adjustments can be provided where required, including the configuration of accessible default views and reports.

Planned Improvements

We are actively working to enhance accessibility by:

  • Introducing ARIA tagging and semantic HTML structure
  • Keyboard shortcuts
  • Custom tab indexing
  • Conducting accessibility audits and user testing to ensure full compliance to WCAG 2.2 AA standards.

Feedback and Contact

We welcome feedback on accessibility and are happy to collaborate with our clients to meet specific user needs.
