Cybersecurity for Recruitment Agencies

Recruitment Firms Are Being Targeted by Cybercriminals – Are You Protected?

Your recruitment agency handles thousands of personal records — CVs, IDs, salary info, and client company data. Hackers know this, and they’re increasingly targeting small recruitment firms with phishing, data breaches, impersonation scams, and ransomware.

At Business Security Hub, we provide affordable, specialist cybersecurity services for recruiters, staffing agencies, and talent acquisition firms.

Why Recruitment Agencies Are High-Risk Cyber Targets

  • Store sensitive candidate and client information
  • Rely heavily on email and online forms
  • Low IT support and minimal cybersecurity infrastructure
  • GDPR liability if any data is lost, leaked, or accessed without consent

A breach not only exposes personal data — it destroys trust with both candidates and clients.

What We Offer to Recruitment Firms

Managed Detection & Response (MDR)

24/7 real-time monitoring to catch threats, malware, or insider risk before it leads to disaster.

✅ Dark Web & Credential Exposure Monitoring

We track if your email accounts, staff logins, or candidate data are leaked or sold on the dark web.

✅ Email and Domain Security

We configure SPF, DKIM, and DMARC to prevent hackers from impersonating your email address.

✅ Device & Cloud Account Security

We harden your systems, secure staff devices, and lock down access to email, CRM, and cloud tools like Bullhorn, Greenhouse, or RecruitCRM.

✅ Staff Cyber Awareness Training

Short, practical training to stop phishing clicks, password reuse, and unintentional data leaks.

Common Threats We Help Prevent

  • Fake job offers sent using your brand
  • Hackers emailing clients as “you” with invoice scams
  • Data breaches of CVs and sensitive candidate info
  • GDPR complaints and investigations
  • Business interruption due to ransomware

Hackers know small recruiters don’t have internal IT — and they exploit that.
