The IT challenges it support for recruitment agencies face
CRM and ATS reliability
Recruitment agencies depend on CRM and applicant tracking systems like Bullhorn, Vincere, and Adapt. If these systems are slow or unavailable, consultants can't access candidate data, client information, or job orders. We ensure your recruitment software runs on optimised, reliable infrastructure.
Candidate data protection
Recruitment agencies hold large volumes of candidate data — CVs, personal information, employment history, and sometimes sensitive information. GDPR requires this data to be protected and processed lawfully. We help agencies implement secure, compliant candidate data management.
Remote and flexible working
Recruiters are often on the move — visiting clients, meeting candidates, and working from home. Secure, reliable remote access to recruitment systems is essential. We design mobile solutions that give consultants access to everything they need from anywhere.
Fast-paced, high-volume data
Recruitment agencies process large volumes of data — candidate CVs, job specifications, client requirements, and placement records. Systems need to be fast and scalable to handle this data efficiently.
GDPR compliance for candidate data
GDPR has specific implications for recruitment agencies — candidate consent, data retention, right to be forgotten, and data portability. We help agencies implement GDPR-compliant systems and processes for candidate data management.
Regulatory requirements we help you meet
Industry software expertise
Sub-sectors we support:
The specific cyber threats targeting your sector
Candidate data theft
Recruitment databases contain thousands of candidate CVs with personal information, employment history, and contact details. This data is valuable to competitors and cybercriminals for identity theft and spam.
Phishing targeting recruitment consultants
Recruitment consultants receive phishing emails designed to steal login credentials for CRM systems and email accounts. Compromised accounts can be used to access candidate data or send fraudulent communications to clients and candidates.
Ransomware targeting recruitment systems
Ransomware can encrypt your entire recruitment database — candidate records, client information, and placement history. Without proper backups, agencies face the loss of years of recruitment data and business relationships.
Business email compromise
Attackers compromise recruitment email accounts to intercept communications between agencies, clients, and candidates — redirecting placement fees or spreading malware to client and candidate networks.
