Security Audit Services Offering

At Kognitiv, we understand that having a robust security configuration is imperative for having a clean, operational system. We also understand that Workday Security is not static; with ever-changing functional requirements, employee turnover and movement, and reorganizations, it is important to have a systematic method of monitoring the health and status of your configuration. We offer a complete review of security and security-related configurations across all functional areas (HCM, FIN, and Student), paired with consultant advisory and recommendations using custom reporting. Also, these reports remain available to you post-review for ongoing use, enabling easier access to key information for maintaining your configuration’s integrity.

While we have encountered almost every issue imaginable, some examples of issues commonly identified:

Security configuration with systemic issues causing process routing issues (unassigned tasks) and unwanted data exposure
Non-public items (reports, manager tasks) available publicly or to non-managers
Non-essential Workday accounts available for login (potential for breach)
Scheduled Processes with errors preventing completion

Some final, specific details of the audit package:

The package consists of over 30 custom reports that monitor and identify specific issues and non-best practice configuration
The audit is completed by a Workday Consultant who performs the initial review and provides an overview of the reports and recommendations based on their findings
All reports are listed in a reports inventory that can be reused in the future for ongoing monitoring and periodic audits
