[12:00 PM EST 10/20/2026]<b> As we continue our response to the Bullhorn Platform security incident, please be vigilant against potential social engineering attacks. Threat actors may pose as Bullhorn personnel via email, text, or phone calls, using the incident as a pretext to request credentials or sensitive information. Please note that Bullhorn will never ask you to share your password, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) codes, or verification tokens via email, telephone, text, or any other channel.</b>
<b>All regions are now online and we are continuing to monitor. </b>
We have recently implemented fixes for customers using SSO. Customers who were experiencing challenges previously are asked to test again and log a ticket via support if their SSO login issues persist. Bullhorn owned customizations across all regions are also in the process of being brought online. Additionally, some users may find they get into a loop as they attempt to update their passwords. Please be patient and give a bit of time between attempts. Please find the <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vT7GyVY26qMXg-HCCp5v7s-QrnGxfGaRCVUgxRVXohcwW-bQI4dx1zUqL8QmnLEnAyTtLucqkHFewuv/pub"><b>FAQ</b></a> here.
