Frequently Asked Question
-
Why is digital accessibility compliance important for SEBI-regulated entities?
Digital accessibility compliance is important for SEBI-regulated entities because SEBI has mandated that all their digital platforms must be usable by persons with disabilities. This requirement ensures equal access and prevents exclusion of a large user base. Secunatix helps organisations meet these obligations by assessing websites, mobile apps, investor portals and other platforms against key standards such as WCAG 2.1 AA, IS 17802, GIGW and the RPwD Act. Compliance also helps reduce regulatory risk and strengthens an organisation’s digital credibility.
-
What does the accessibility audit from Secunatix include?
The Secunatix accessibility audit includes a detailed manual and automated evaluation of your digital assets conducted by certified experts. It covers websites, mobile applications, customer portals, KYC and e-KYC platforms, investor dashboards and digital documents. Each platform is reviewed against recognised accessibility standards to identify barriers faced by users with disabilities and to provide a clear understanding of your current level of accessibility and compliance readiness.
-
Is accessibility compliance a one-time process?
Accessibility compliance is not a one-time activity. Technology, content and regulations continue to evolve, which means accessibility must be monitored and maintained regularly. Secunatix supports ongoing compliance through periodic audits, updates and continuous guidance so that your digital platforms remain inclusive and meet the latest standards.
