• Washington State's new policy concerning digital accessibility has been signed and posted online. https://ocio.wa.gov/policies/policy-188-accessibility
Policy #188 requires that the technology and content that WA State services are built on and use are accessible by meeting an established and testable standard, WCAG 2.0 level AA. The policy also requires that Agencies have an Information Accessibility Coordinator to shepherd the creation and publishing of policies concerning accessibility, processes in place to conform to the policy and a plan to address existing barriers in digital access. Ryan will be coming in September to share more.

• Drupal 8.1.7 released – Highly Critical
Drupal 8 uses the third-party PHP library Guzzle for making server-side HTTP requests. An attacker can provide a proxy server that Guzzle will use. The details of this are explained at https://httpoxy.org/.
