Ten practical Workday security checks that go beyond the standard implementation checklist, covering everything from piping the User Activity Report into your SIEM, to IP restricting admin and API access, to catching toxic approval flow combinations before they become a real problem. None of them are complicated individually, but they're the kind of thing that gets set once and never revisited until an audit or incident forces the question.
