The moment someone visits your careers page, cside starts working in real-time, analyzing device fingerprints and flagging instantly high-risk patterns to your applicant tracking system. Applications that are deemed suspicious are routed automatically to enhanced verification or blocked entirely before they consume recruiter time. With immediate detection, your recruiting team can focus on legitimate candidates and prevent fraudulent applicants from entering your talent pipeline in the first place, allowing you to save resources.
How much does fraudulent hiring typically cost companies?
The cost of hiring a fraudulent actor extends far beyond wasted salary expenses and in some cases has even bankrupted the victims.
Why are tech companies and government contractors particularly at risk?
Tech companies and government contractors are prime targets because they handle valuable intellectual property, source code, infrastructure credentials and sensitive data that foreign adversaries want to access.
What makes device fingerprinting effective for detecting fake job applicants?
Device fingerprinting analyzes a range of technical signals from each applicant's browser and device to create a unique SHA-256 identifier with high accuracy.
Will cside fingerprinting add latency or block the UI?
No. The fingerprinting script exposes fingerprinting functions on window without affecting rendering, and collection runs asynchronously in the background.
