Handshake Security Information:
Security Processes through Handshake for Student and Employer information.
Employer Tracking Security Measures
Handshake reviews all employers and employment possibilities through a partnership with Sift and Google’s webrisk API. These employer validation tools use machine learning to monitor for fraudulent activity from the moment an employer creates an account onward—when logging in, posting jobs, and sending messages. Sift tracks IP addresses, devices, and known malicious networks across their customer base to quickly identify suspected fraudulent activity. Meanwhile, Google’s webrisk API will monitor for suspicious company website URLs. Taken together, these partnerships allow Handshake to monitor for: Fraudulent account creation, Fraudulent job postings, Malicious messages & spam, Malicious websites, and Account takeover. Once new employers pass employer validation, they will be allowed onto the network near-instantaneously. Handshake’s Trust & Safety Team will review employers flagged as potentially malicious to decide whether they should be suspended from our platform.
NOTE: Handshake will not block employers for having a residential address, not having a website, or having a mismatch between email domain and website domain. However, their Trust & Safety Team will monitor correlation between these employer attributes and fraudulent activity on the network to determine whether/how this data point can help better identify fraud in the future.
Beware of Scams and Phishing Handshake and a variety of online job boards are very convenient for you to find positions. Although security precautions exist, scammers can sometimes get through and create fraudulent positions. It is very important that you proceed with caution and common sense. You need to read position descriptions carefully before applying. Handshake has high security thresholds, but no system is 100% fraud free. You control the distribution of your resume in the Handshake system by submission. No employer has access to your Documents section or Profile unless you choose to make your profile public. Trust your instincts! If you are uncomfortable with some of the information requested, do not continue contact with the organization or individual. If you receive follow-up correspondence or an offer that seems unusual, you need to proceed with caution. Some e-mail providers along with social media sites allow you to block users, so use this to protect yourself. Flag the employer on Handshake and email the CCPD if you believe a company is suspicious. SOME COMMON SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY TO AVOID AND REPORT:
