Improved Pages load faster Public Site

A round of performance work across the public site: pages are now compressed before they are sent, images load as you reach them instead of all at once, map data is sent more compactly, and assets are cached for longer on repeat visits.

Improved Display preferences follow your account Public Site

User preferences such as theme and dismissed notices are saved to your profile, so they survive signing out and follow you to another computer.

Improved Faster content pages Public Site

The site's content pages — About, Requirements, Education, Reports and Tools — are now built into the site itself instead of being assembled from the content system on every visit, leading to performance improvements.

Improved Security updates Public Site

Routine security hardening across the site, including updated third-party components and tighter checks on where the site will load images and other content from.

Improved Error pages Public Site

Errors now show the site's own error page instead of a plain browser one.

Improved Faster pages while certificates are generated Public Site

Certificate PDFs are produced in the background, so they no longer slow down the rest of the site.

Improved Keyboard navigation Public Site

The main menu and its submenus work properly with a keyboard and with screen readers.

Improved Accessibility improvements Public Site

Search suggestions and card links now work correctly with screen readers.
