At KEBS, our commitment to diversity and inclusion is critical to our success.
Mission
KEBS’s mission is to provide universal access to our innovative business solutions platform. We are dedicated to ensuring that our website and mobile applications are accessible to all our users, including those with disabilities.
We envision a world where every individual, regardless of their location or abilities, can transform their business operations by accessing the world’s leading business solutions platform. This includes end-users of all abilities. Our goal is to ensure that the user experience on our platform is inclusive and accessible to individuals with disabilities.
About Accessibility
Accessibility pertains to the ability for everyone, including those who are differently-abled, to access and utilize technology and information products. With an aging global population and over 1 billion people with disabilities worldwide (as per the World Health Organization), the need for accessible technologies is paramount.
Businesses worldwide are becoming increasingly cognizant of the needs of individuals requiring accessible technologies to thrive in a professional environment. Accessibility holds both social and economic significance for enterprises.
In our pursuit of fostering a culture of global inclusion, KEBS is unwavering in its commitment to respecting and safeguarding human rights throughout our product and service lifecycle: from conceptualization to development and usage. Consequently, our products are designed in alignment with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA, encompassed in US Section 508, and the harmonized EN 301 549, which includes WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
Application Architecture
The application’s initial protection is provided by AWS’s firewall, designed to counter DDoS attacks and other network intrusions. The second layer of defense is KEBS’s application firewall, which guards against malicious IPs, users, and spam. While the application is accessible only to users with valid credentials, it’s essential to understand that security in cloud-based products is a shared responsibility. All stored account passwords in the application are one-way hashed and salted.
KEBS employs a multi-tenant data model for its applications. Each application operates from an individual virtual private cloud, with each customer identified by a unique tenant ID. The application is meticulously engineered to ensure data retrieval only for the logged-in tenant. No customer can access another’s data. Access to the application by the KEBS development team is controlled, managed, and audited. All access activities are logged for future audits.
Goals
To realize our vision of accessibility for all KEBS users, we are steadfast in our commitment to the following:
- KEBS endeavors to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (“WCAG”) 2.1 AA as set forth by the World Wide Web Consortium.
- We are dedicated to ensuring accuracy and comprehensiveness in our accessibility efforts.
- An independent accessibility consultant conducts periodic reviews of our platform. This helps in identifying potential accessibility challenges, enabling KEBS to address and rectify them as deemed necessary.
- KEBS developers undergo training and engage in projects centered around accessibility. This dual approach not only educates but also enhances the accessibility of our products during their development phase.
