What basic security checks do you actually follow every week?

In many setups I’ve seen, the real issues aren’t complex — it’s small things getting missed:

Old user/vendor access still active
Backups assumed to be working
Critical updates delayed
Alerts no one checks
No clear owner if something breaks

Individually, these don’t feel urgent.
But that’s usually where problems start.

Do you follow a weekly checklist for this?
Or is it more reactive in your environment?
