Nick,

Is any evidence required for WCAG conformance?  I’ve seen plenty of sales folks who nod their heads and even sign the 
contracts, but have no idea what it really means and have never had any assessments performed.

Hi Brad,

Sorry for the confusion. When I said 508 compliance, what we include in the template contract is:

“all federal disability laws, including Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and will also remain in conformance with 
Level AAA of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0.”

What we end up in a final agreement is dependent on what the service validation group thinks is necessary and the 
service provider can agree to do, so if we get AA vs AAA will depend on this aspect of validation.

Thanks,

Nick

Like many other EDUs, the accessibility standard we look for with third-party service providers is WCAG 2.0 AA. It 
would be great if I2 used a standard like this during all of their Net+ negotiations.

Hi everyone,

I checked with LastPass for an update from when we last discussed this with them. We discussed 508 compliance with 
LastPass during the NET+ service validation and periodically since.

LastPass does not have a VPAT at this time, but does continue to develop consistent with the W3C guidelines and they 
believe themselves to be 508 and W3C compliant.  They have blind users using LastPass through JAWS, and are open to any 
improvements or working directly with any users experiencing issues.

We’ll continue to work with them and please let us know if you have any questions about the NET+ LastPass program.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Theresa - When we selected LastPass we asked them for a VPAT and they were not able to provide one. Perhaps we can 
ask as a group?

Has LastPass or any similar tool been able to provide a VPAT or similar documentation for accessibility compliance?

All,
Yes there is a lastpass program with Internet2. We have also been working with them on how to accelerate adoption for 
campuses as more institution are tackling this particular challenge.  Nick Lewis heads up that effort and will respond

    Interested in what vendor app the community may be using for centralizing passwords.  I have looked at several 
products and ran across a fairly straight forward and inexpensive one in TeamsID.



    Appreciate the feedback in advance!
