Weakest area — accessibility (5/10): Text contrast appears adequate but small navigation text may be difficult for low-vision users.
Quick wins: Add more prominent call-to-action buttons (e.g., 'Apply Now', 'Learn More', 'Contact Us') to guide user journey. Enhance mobile responsiveness testing as the current layout may not scale well to smaller screens.

Text Overlap on Hero Image
HIGH P7
Prompt to Fix
The issue is text overlap in the hero section where the main headline overlaps with descriptive text on the right side. Fix it by properly spacing the layout elements and ensuring text areas are separated with adequate margin/padding to prevent visual overlap.
Why it's a bug
The main headline 'The Need for Developer-Centric Application Security: Our Investment in StackHawk' is overlapping with the descriptive text on the right side ('Catch security bugs with StackHawk'). This creates poor readability and appears to be a layout issue where text elements are not properly contained or positioned.
Why it might not be a bug
This could be intentional design, but it negatively impacts readability and professionalism of the hero section.
Suggested Fix
Adjust the layout so that the headline and the right-side descriptive text are properly separated with adequate spacing, or reposition elements to prevent overlap. Consider using flexbox or grid layout to ensure proper spacing on various screen sizes.
Why Fix
Overlapping text significantly reduces readability and creates a poor user experience on the hero section, which is typically the most important part of a landing page.

Date appears to be in the future (JUL 17, 2025)
MED P6
Prompt to Fix
The date shown is JUL 17, 2025 which is a future date. Update the date to the correct publication date or remove the article from public view if it's scheduled content.
Why it's a bug
The article is dated JUL 17, 2025, which is a future date. This is clearly visible in the screenshot and appears to be an error unless this is intentionally pre-published content. Future dates on published articles are confusing and reduce credibility.
Why it might not be a bug
This could be intentional if the article is scheduled for future publication, but it should not be publicly visible if that's the case.
Suggested Fix
Correct the date to the actual publication date (current or past date), or if this is scheduled content, it should not be publicly visible on the perspectives page.
Why Fix
Displaying future dates on published content undermines credibility and confuses readers about when content was actually published.
