0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

Bullhorn is a leading enterprise software provider specializing in recruitment automation and applicant tracking systems tailored for staffing agencies. Their platform streamlines candidate outreach, scheduling, and administrative tasks, enabling recruitment professionals to focus on hiring. The company positions itself strongly in the staffing technology market with a comprehensive suite of services and a professional online presence. Technically, the website is built on WordPress with modern JavaScript libraries and integrates advanced marketing and analytics tools such as Marketo and Google Tag Manager, ensuring robust digital maturity and SEO optimization. Security-wise, the site enforces HTTPS and uses consent management tools, but lacks explicit security policies or vulnerability disclosure mechanisms. The absence of WHOIS data is a notable anomaly but does not detract significantly from the overall legitimacy given the professional branding and content quality. Overall, Bullhorn demonstrates a mature digital infrastructure with a strong market position in recruitment technology.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Bullhorn operates in the technology sector, focusing on recruitment automation software for staffing agencies. Their business model is SaaS-based, targeting enterprise clients with scalable solutions. The company leverages partnerships and integrations, such as with Salesforce and Marketo, to enhance its offerings. Their marketing strategy includes extensive content resources, webinars, and industry research, positioning them as thought leaders. The website's structured data and social media presence support strong brand visibility. While the WHOIS data is unavailable, the company's market footprint and digital assets indicate a well-established enterprise. Growth indicators include continuous product launches like Bullhorn Amplify and data hygiene guides, reflecting innovation and customer-centric development.

Security posture

The website exhibits a solid security posture with enforced HTTPS, use of a reputable consent management platform (OneTrust), and integration of secure marketing tools. No exposed sensitive data or vulnerable libraries were detected in the HTML content. However, the site lacks explicit security policies, incident response contacts, and vulnerability disclosure information, which are best practices for enterprise security transparency. Security headers are not explicitly visible in the HTML but may be configured at the server level. Recommendations include publishing a security policy, incident response details, and a security.txt file to enhance trust and compliance. Overall, the security maturity is good but could be improved with more visible governance documentation.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response page to improve transparency and user trust.
  2. Implement and publicly link a vulnerability disclosure or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting.
  3. Verify and enhance HTTP security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and marketing tools for security vulnerabilities and privacy compliance.
  5. Address the lack of WHOIS data by ensuring domain registration information is accurate and publicly accessible to improve legitimacy signals.

Opportunities exist to improve security header visibility and to document security governance publicly. The technical setup aligns well with enterprise standards for recruitment software providers.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
