This VPAT applies the following sections of the Section 508 Standards for Electronic and Information Technology of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to the COMPANY NAME web sites/web applications and its VeriSign Identity Protection. Section 1194.22, for Web-based Intranet and Internet Information and Applications. Sections 1194.31 and 1194.41 (Functional Performance and Information/Documentation) Additionally, this VPAT details the success criteria used to show compliance to these sections. The 508/255 Refresh In 2006, the Access Board started an update of the accessibility laws due to technology changes, differences in interpretation, and international harmonization. Since the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) had been updated to 2.0 officially in December of 2008, the 2.0 version of the WCAG was used heavily in this update effort. This effort to reconcile WCAG 1.0 level one (the basis for the existing Section 508) to WCAG 2.0 is called the 508/255 Refresh. In July of 2009, the Ad Hoc Committee presented its final draft for Access Board approval, and the final rule of 508 was published with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) and moved into the public involvement stage. Since then, it has gone through sub-committee, public information meetings, and open question/feedback periods. Though currently a recommendation, the updated draft of Section 508/255 is expected to be finalized in 2010, close to if not exactly as it stands currently.

It is much easier to create an accessible medium in the first place than it is to create an equally effective text-only substitute. Note 1: The techniques for 1.3.1 Situation B do not describe how to implement text only tables. Here is a technique that is faithful. Linearized Tables: To represent a textual data table use a relational data format in a linear order. That is, use the set of column headers for field names. Each row is a list of ordered pairs field names paired with its data values. If row headers are present then use these names as row titles. One per table row. The list of all such rows is the table. This document is an example of a linearized table in relational form. The elements are row headers. The elements are column headers. The data values are the text contents associated with the elements.Statement (508 Wording):WCAG 1 Checkpoint
