Explanation

A Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) is the best recommendation when an organization adopts a public SaaS application. A CASB sits between the user and the SaaS provider, enforcing security policies, providing visibility into data flows, detecting threats, and ensuring data loss prevention (DLP). For an HR recruiting SaaS handling sensitive candidate data (PII, resumes, background checks), a CASB ensures the organization can monitor and control how that data is accessed, shared, and protected - even in an environment the organization doesn't control. HIPAA (A) is healthcare-specific and not applicable to recruiting. Consulting legal (C) is advisable but not the best technical recommendation. Encryption (D) is a partial control, not comprehensive.
