Our Commitment to Accessibility

At NetScout Analytics Corp, we are committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to everyone, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that everyone should have equal access to information and services, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. Our goal is to provide a website that is easy to use and navigate for all users.

We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website and comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA. These guidelines outline how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide range of disabilities. We use these guidelines as our standard for web accessibility, and we regularly review and update our website to ensure compliance.

Accessibility Features

We have implemented several features to enhance the accessibility of our website:

• Alternative Text for Images: All images on our website have descriptive alternative text, allowing users who use screen readers to understand the content of the images. For example, an image showing the NetScout Analyzer interface has the alt text "Screenshot of the NetScout Analyzer network monitoring interface".
• Keyboard Navigation: Our website can be navigated using a keyboard, allowing users who cannot use a mouse to access all content and functionality.
• Clear and Consistent Navigation: We have designed our website with a clear and consistent navigation structure, making it easy for users to find the information they need.
• Semantic HTML: We use semantic HTML elements to structure our content, which helps assistive technologies understand the content and present it in a meaningful way to users.
• Color Contrast: We have ensured that there is sufficient color contrast between text and background colors to make our content readable for users with visual impairments. The color palette was carefully chosen to ensure WCAG compliance.
• Resizable Text: Users can easily resize the text on our website using their browser settings, allowing them to adjust the text size to their preference.
• Forms Accessibility: All forms on our website are designed to be accessible, with clear labels and instructions for each field. We ensure that form controls are properly labeled and associated with their corresponding input fields to assist users of screen readers.
• Video Captions and Transcripts: All videos on our website have captions or transcripts available, making them accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing.
• ARIA Attributes: We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to provide additional information to assistive technologies, enhancing the accessibility of interactive elements on our website.

Assistive Technologies

Our website is designed to be compatible with a wide range of assistive technologies, including:

• Screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver
• Screen magnifiers
