Access Denied: The Security Risk of Ignoring Accessibility

If your people can’t use your security, you don’t have security.

Organisations pour millions into fingerprint scanners, MFA apps, and training platforms. Yet breaches still happen. Why? Because staff are locked out by inaccessible systems and pushed into risky workarounds. Those shortcuts are the cracks attackers slip through.

In Access Denied, security behaviour specialist Jemma Davis calls out the industry’s blind spot: controls that exclude people and leave companies weaker, not stronger. With real-world cases, legal reality checks, and lessons drawn from the front line, she shows why ignoring accessibility is not just unfair: it is dangerous.

You’ll learn:

* How exclusion in everyday tools fuels security failures

* The hidden financial, legal, and reputational risks of “compliance theatre”

* Practical ways to build security that works for everyone and actually holds up under pressure

This book is written for CISOs, compliance leaders, IT professionals, and anyone tired of buying the illusion of protection.

Accessible security isn’t charity. It’s your strongest defence.
