    Brief

    This opportunity seeks a qualified security firm to conduct a comprehensive penetration testing and security assessment of a web-based job board and applicant tracking system (ATS) before its public launch. The assessment will evaluate the security of both the web application and its associated API across all components that will handle sensitive data, including personal information, user credentials, curricula vitae (CVs), and job applications. The successful vendor will identify vulnerabilities, test security controls, and provide actionable recommendations to ensure the platform meets industry security standards and protects user data from unauthorized access or breach. This is a critical pre-launch engagement required before the system becomes internet-facing and operational.
