Accessibility features assist users, who have a disability such as restricted mobility or limited vision to use information technology content successfully.

Accessibility features

IBM Security QRadar® Suite Software includes the following major accessibility features.

  • Keyboard-only operation
  • Readable content for screen reader
  • Command line interface (CLI) to manage the cluster

The platform uses the latest W3C Standard, Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA) link to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection to ensure compliance with US Section 508 link to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)link to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection. For more information, see Product Accessibility Reportslink to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection.

The platform's online product documentation and user interface framework are enabled for accessibility.

To take advantage of the accessibility features, use the latest release of your screen reader in combination with the latest web browser that is supported by the platform. For more information, see supported browsers.

Documentation

The platform's online product documentation in IBM® Documentation is viewable from a standard web browser.

The accessibility features of IBM Documentation are described at IBM Accessibility content designlink to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection.

All external links, which are links to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection, open in a new window. These external links are also flagged with an external link icon (link to content that is hosted outside of the IBM Documentation collection).

The platform documentation contains file paths, environment variables, commands, and other content that might be mispronounced by standard screen readers. For the most accurate descriptions, configure your screen reader settings to read all punctuation.

Keyboard navigation

  • The user interfaces do not have content that flashes 2 - 55 times per second.
  • The web user interfaces rely on cascading style sheets to render content properly and to provide a usable experience.
  • The platform provides an equivalent way for low-vision users to use a user’s system display settings, including high-contrast mode.
  • You can control font size by using the device or web browser settings.
