Fractional CTO · Security & accessibility
Secure, compliant and usable by everyone.
Security, compliance and accessibility are design inputs, not afterthoughts. I build them in from the start, and review what you already have.
What it is
I review your existing stack against OWASP standards, performance budgets and uptime expectations, and I’ve built production systems for regulated environments: food safety (R638), property management and healthcare.
Accessibility is new as a service: audits against WCAG 2.2 AA, fixes in your codebase, and monitoring so it stays fixed.
What I lead or deliver
Security and performance reviews
A systematic review of your stack against OWASP standards, performance budgets and uptime expectations.
Compliance evidence
Systems that collect evidence continuously (readings, sign-offs, corrective actions) so the record is complete when the auditor arrives.
Accessibility audit
Automated and manual testing against WCAG 2.2 AA, with a prioritised report in plain English.
Remediation and monitoring
I fix the issues in your codebase or guide your team, then run regular scans so new content doesn’t quietly break things.
Accessibility services
Accessibility, priced up front.
I test your site by hand with a keyboard and a screen reader, not a widget, and tell you in plain English what’s blocking people. It’s delivered as part of my role as your Fractional CTO / Technical Director.

Ask about accessibilityA short example
I fixed my own site first
On 30 September 2026, automated tests of the current erzo.co.za found 218 colour-contrast failures across 11 pages. This redesign has zero automated accessibility violations, and works with reduced motion and without JavaScript.
