This article goes into the importance of having accessibility and inclusivity when it comes to cybersecurity. It highlights what exactly this would mean by talking about designing cybersecurity measures that work to include everyone. That the policies and procedures must be made to include marginalized communities and those with disabilities. The article talks about how if software, hardware, or websites are not easy to use for everyone it can increase the risk of cyber threats to those who are vulnerable. That people who can not get online due to income, geographic location, education, or disability are not factored into designs of how to strengthen cybersecurity and do not have the proper tools to protect themselves once able to get online. They deem this as digital exclusion and go into depth about why we must keep these groups in mind. To highlight these disparities in cybersecurity they talk about changing policies and standards as well as providing training. Creating policies like giving access to those that may not be able to afford high speed internet and letting more people in when it comes to decision making.
