Interface information
The Verify Identity Access user interfaces do not have content that flashes 2 - 55 times per second.
The Verify Identity Access web user interfaces and the IBM Knowledge Center rely on cascading style sheets to render content properly and to provide a usable experience. The application 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.
The Verify Identity Access web user interface includes WAI-ARIA navigational landmarks that you can use to quickly navigate to functional areas in the application.
