Workday lookalike domains
Greyphish has recorded 92 domains that resemble Workday since February 2026, 14 of them in the last 90 days. They split between combosquats (50%) and typosquats (47%). .com carries 71% of them, out of 22 endings in all. The pace has picked up, with 10 in the last 30 days against 3 in the 30 before. 16 certificates for unregistered .ph, .com.ph, .org.ph names (registry wildcard) are excluded: the registry answers for any name under those endings, so nobody had to register one to get a certificate for it.

Where they are registered
For the 64 with a registrar in WHOIS (70% of all). Brand-protection registrars mostly hold defensive registrations made by brands themselves, so a domain there is more likely the brand's own than an imitation.
| Registrar | Lookalikes | Share | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| GoDaddy | 13 | 20.3% | Retail |
| Namecheap | 8 | 12.5% | Retail |
| NameBright | 5 | 7.8% | Retail |
| Alibaba Cloud | 4 | 6.3% | Retail |
| Dynadot | 4 | 6.3% | Retail |

Recent examples
The 10 most recent, written with [.] so they cannot be clicked. The brand's own domains and registrations held by brand-protection registrars are left out. A lookalike resembles Workday; it is not necessarily malicious, and none of these is a claim about who registered it or why.
