This website is dedicated to the research being conducted at UA Little Rock, focusing on critical areas of cybersecurity education, innovative application development, and impactful workforce development initiatives for blind and visually impaired individuals. Our team is committed to advancing knowledge and creating practical solutions in these domains. We strive to empower individuals through accessible technology, enhance cybersecurity awareness and skills, and contribute to a more inclusive and digitally equitable future. Explore our projects, publications, and team member profiles to learn more about our ongoing work and its potential impact.

This project is part of the dissertation work of William Cox, a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at the University. This project has grown since its inception and now includes organizations such as the World Services for the Blind, Freedom Scientific, and men and women around the country who are blind or visually impaired and work in the field of cybersecurity.

We are currently looking for more people to help to participate in this project. If you are blind or visually impaired and work in or aspiring to work in the field of cybersecurity, we would love to hear from you.
