PROFILE
Neiltait
Neil Tait contributed to the ministryofjustice/hmpps-sentence-plan-ui repository by enhancing both accessibility testing infrastructure and session security. He configured deployment environments to support targeted accessibility testing, integrating new IP address management using YAML and DevOps practices to streamline CI/CD workflows and reduce manual setup. In backend development, Neil implemented SameSite=Strict for session cookies in TypeScript to strengthen CSRF protection, then quickly addressed a Capita integration regression by reverting to SameSite=lax, ensuring external compatibility. His work demonstrated a practical approach to balancing security and integration needs, with a focus on configuration management, web security, and cross-functional collaboration.
