TalentNet, the originator of Direct Sourcing, delivers AI-powered recruiting with built-in compliance and security
TORONTO, Oct. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- TalentNet, an industry leader in Direct Sourcing, today announced the launch of its AI platform built on Amazon Bedrock with integrated Amazon Bedrock Guardrails, addressing a critical barrier preventing enterprise adoption of AI recruiting tools: compliance and security concerns.
The platform enables enterprise recruiting teams to deploy AI-powered features with complete audit trails, PII protection, and configurable safety controls that meet SOC 1 / 2 / 3, HIPAA, GDPR, and ISO 27001 requirements, eliminating the compliance friction that has slowed AI adoption in regulated industries.
Solving Enterprise AI Adoption Challenges
While AI has transformed consumer recruiting tools, enterprise customers in healthcare, financial services, and government sectors have been reluctant to adopt AI recruiting platforms due to data privacy concerns, regulatory compliance requirements, and lack of safety controls.
TalentNet's Amazon Bedrock implementation directly addresses these barriers by processing all AI workloads within the customer's chosen AWS region with bank-level encryption and configurable guardrails that prevent harmful content, mask sensitive information, and maintain complete audit logs.
"Enterprise customers have been reluctant to adopt AI recruiting tools due to compliance concerns," said Shawn Duggan, TalentNet's Chief Technology Officer. "With Amazon Bedrock and Guardrails, we're delivering a Direct Sourcing platform where CISOs can actually say yes to AI, with complete audit trails, PII protection, and configurable safety controls."
