Bullhorn sees red after cyberattack knocks recruitment platform offline

What happened: Bullhorn shut down its recruitment platform after detecting a cyber incident, and services returned in the UK, US, and Australia with some users still facing SSO, password reset, and customization issues. Key numbers: Bullhorn serves more than 10,000 customers worldwide. Why it matters: Recruitment agencies lost access to candidate records, job applications, placements, and in some cases payroll systems. Bullhorn has not determined whether attackers exfiltrated customer data, and the cause remains unknown.
