Lowe's Layoffs: Lowe's Companies, Inc. to Cut Around 3,000 Jobs
The Lowe's layoffs will have the home improvement retailer reducing its total workforce by roughly 1%. The decision comes after the company lowered its outlook for 2017 due to lower customer traffic.

It hopes that these employees will be able to help customers with questions and give them information about products that the retail chain sells.

The report that Lowe's Companies, Inc. will be cutting jobs comes from unnamed sources that are close to the matter. These sources claim that LOW is attempting to adjust to the new shopping habits that it is seeing from customers.

American Apparel to close all of its stores
Gildan Activewear has no obligation to keep employees
American Apparel, once a high-flying retailer that peaked at more than $600 million in sales, is probably headed toward liquidation after a bankruptcy auction ended with Canadian T-shirt and underwear maker Gildan Activewear buying intellectual property and other assets for $88 million.

This transaction doesn't include American Apparel's stores, and the fate of its garment workers in Los Angeles remains in doubt. The company had 4,700 employees and 110 stores as of November, when it filed for bankruptcy for the second time in 13 months.

Gildan said it has no obligation to keep any American Apparel employees. pressdemocrat.com

NRF 2017: Tech focus can help us recruit top talent - Macy's CEO
Macy's is going through some major changes in 2017, with the closure of 68 stores and over 10,000 job losses announced at the start of the year, but CEO Terry Lundgren is still looking to attract the next generation of retail workers with a focus on digital development.

Talking as part of the first keynote at this week's National Retail Federation (NRF) Big Show, in New York, US, the retail boss said working alongside universities and committing to online, data analytics and other systems development can help the organisation boost its performance again.

"We've been focused on [digital development] for many now - we've become the sixth largest online retailer in America," he explained.

"As a result of [this strategy] we've been able to attract great talent that is focused on technology."

Despite the retailer facing a challenging environment in the 12 months ahead, he suggested the company has received plaudits for the work it has done in supporting women's development in technology. The retailer has also recently grown its data analytics team as it looks to get a closer measure on how best to serve modern shoppers. essentialretail.com

2017 Retail Predictions
As the new year gets underway, it's time to look forward to the changes and trends 2017 will bring. For retailers, that includes some new consumer behaviors in addition to the always-expected technological advances. While change might seem overwhelming, it can also provide fresh opportunities for sales. And with a little planning, retailers can stay ahead of competition to meet the demands of their customers.

Automated Online Returns - Throughout 2016, online shopping experienced enormous growth - and there's no sign of a slowdown. As online shopping continues to become more common, you can anticipate a push for easy, automated return processes from online retailers.

Retailer Transparency - From manufacturing details to corporate values, the average consumer desires greater transparency from retailers recently. This is especially true of Millennial shoppers, many of whom would rather purchase from a socially conscious brand over a luxury retailer.

Independent Retailers - Over the last several years, there's been a growing demand for niche, independent retailers. Why? It starts with personalization - having access to a retailer that simultaneously caters to individual needs and likely knows their customer inside and out. For both new and existing brands, this trend leads to improved, more personalized service as well as a smaller store footprint.

Mobile, Mobile and More Mobile - The growth of mobile is no longer a secret, and incorporating a mobile strategy can only benefit your brand - regardless of your company's size. chainstoreage.com

Top 10 Workplace Trends:
Data-based Action Plans
The Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP) has published its fourth annual Top 10 Workplace Trends list. Several of the trends on this list signify great changes in the way workplaces function. It appears "change" will be a major trend itself in organizations this year.

#3. Leveraging Big Data to Make Data-Driven Decisions

Big data has been one of the biggest organizational buzzwords for several years, but data aren't of much use without taking action on it. This year, we will see organizations work to tie all their data to workforce planning to make better, informed business and workforce decisions. Data-based strategic decision making will go beyond data analytics to create meaningful data-based action plans. ehstoday.com

IoT, Foreign Actors, Insider Threats Shape 2017 Risk Management
A new year means new and evolving security threats are shaping businesses' risk management strategies. In 2017, corporate security concerns will come from insider threats, hostile nation-states, and the growth of new technologies connected to the Internet of Things.

Hostile nation-states are an increasing threat to Western countries, explains Jon Condra, Flashpoint's director of east Asian research. We'll see their greater willingness to use cyber means to reach their goals.

The threat of financially motivated cybercriminals will also escalate. Businesses should be especially wary. "There was a shift towards targeting organizations, especially within the cybercrime community" says Condra of 2016 threats. "Attackers are targeting large organizations instead of their customers in order to monetize stolen data."

This trend is poised to escalate in 2017. As more people understand how data can be monetized for a variety of reasons, security pros should be on alert for insider threats.

There are several reasons why employees go rogue, Condra continues. They may be disaffected with their work or desire supplementary income. As insider cases become more publicized, and potential gains increase, workers will be tempted to become sources for threat actors. darkreading.com

Dangerous security assumptions that put companies at risk
In the broader picture, many businesses make dangerous assumptions in the way they think about architecting their security. "There is this assumption that they must do this or that to be secure. For example, they assume that if everything is done over SSL that they are protected," Kotler said.

They assume their connection is secure, but in reality that's not always going to be the case. "The idea that users are behind a firewall, so they are safe makes a company believe they are not at risk, but hackers will work around it," Kotler said.

In addition to believing that their security solutions will protect them, many companies make the dangerous assumption that if they are compliant, they are secure, said Chris Camacho, Flashpoint's chief strategy officer.

"They think because they've invested in security, brought in a top consultant, and checked boxes, that they are secure, but they have done nothing to secure the operational network and overall security operations," Camacho said.

Often when these companies incur an incident, they then ask why they didn't detect it or get an alert or have any details. "Usually an organization was prepared to meet regulatory compliance, not security," he said. csoonline.com

Identify and Protect Your Critical Assets
Without moving to the area of guessing, it's critical for businesses to understand the risk factors and potential damages they have in the enterprise. They need to know where they are most vulnerable, "But also, if someone does get in, what are the damages that will happen?" Bar Noy said.

Understanding their environment will allow them to focus on areas that are most critical instead of spending money on solutions for something that might happen. Because a threat exists, doesn't mean it is a risk for all enterprises. "Focus on the area that you feel the damages will be substantial, then ask, 'how are my most precious assets protected?'" Bar Noy said.

It's also important to remember that those groups of bad actors around the world are all doing this for money. "This is a business. People wake up in the morning in the same way that you and I go to the office, but their entire day is focused around penetrating the organization. They want the quickest, highest pay out. They won't put a lot of effort into targeting the least reward," said Bar Noy. csoonline.com

Profitect Kicks off 2017 with Continued Momentum Heading into NRF Presentation

Over 200% growth in customer portfolio and revenue, alongside 75% increase in staff contributed to a successful 2016

WALTHAM, MA - Profitect Inc., the leading prescriptive analytics provider for the retail industry, today announced growth statistics for 2016, revealing a revenue increase of over 250 percent compared to 2015. This, alongside a reported twofold increase in customer portfolio, mirrors the retail industry's desire to make better use of their data with actionable analytics solutions. In addition to its already impressive list of clients, Profitect partnered with Ascena Retail Group's Lane Bryant and Catherines divisions as well as ASDA to give store managers a holistic view of shopper behavior, loss prevention and Internet of Things data management. Profitect's modules work in tandem to maximize value, offering analytics to operations such as inventory or sales. Customers leveraging additional modules and expanding to new organizations in the business served as a significant driver for 2016's revenue increase.

Profitect CEO Guy Yehiav will be discussing these data analytics capabilities and the potential for retailers to leverage the Internet of Things at NRF 2017. Alongside Seth Hughes, Senior Manager of Asset Protection Solutions at Walgreens and Andrea Weiss, founder of the O Alliance, Yehiav will cover retail's relationship with IoT and how prescriptive analytics utilizes machine learning to maximize the value of the Internet of Things.

"If you look at the successes we've seen in 2016, it is the combination of two major influences," said Guy Yehiav, CEO and Chairman of Profitect. "The first, of course, is the hard work our internal team does on a daily basis to make sure our customers are using a simple, easy to deploy solution which makes their lives easier, generating strong monetary value. The second is reflective of a wider industry trend, as businesses -- not only retailers but organizations across a variety of verticals -- are turning to prescriptive analytics and machine learning capabilities to become as efficient and effective as possible. There is a unique potential in prescriptive intelligence to create an almost self sustaining system of identifying profit increasing opportunities and flagging them appropriately in real time. It's a trend that is only primed to grow as we look toward the future."

Amazon Fined $1.1M For List Price Issue
Amazon is now on the hook to pay a $1.1 million fine to Canada's Competition Bureau. The fine is part of a punishment slapped against the retail giant for misleading consumers with erroneous prices on its Canadian website, www.amazon.ca.

The Competition Bureau, an independent law enforcement agency, recently investigated Amazon's pricing practices between May 2014 and May 2016. Prices posted on its site were compared to a "list price" that had a line slashed through it, ultimately leading consumers into thinking that they were saving money by purchasing the item on Amazon as opposed to another retailer. As it turns out, the suggested savings incentive was never verified by Amazon, according to the bureau's findings.

Amazon's actions violate the Competition Act, a law that safeguards from being deceived by inflated regular prices. The pricing issue appeared not only on the Amazon.ca website, but also on Amazon's mobile apps, online ads and even emails sent to consumers.

As a result, Amazon will be paying $1 million to the government and another $100,000 to cover the costs of the agency's costs in resolving the issue. pymnts.com

Alibaba's counterfeit woes won't soon stop
Just before Christmas, the U.S. Trade Representative added Alibaba's Taobao e-commerce site to a list of "notorious markets" that traffic in counterfeits. That's an unseemly place for a publicly held company: Other members include a Chinese shopping mall that specializes in counterfeit leather goods and a Paraguayan border market rife with organized crime that hawks everything from fake Ray-Bans to knockoff DVDs.

Alibaba isn't keen to be associated with this motley group. But like Amazon.com, eBay and other online marketplaces dependent on Chinese manufacturers, it has struggled to maintain its integrity against an onslaught of counterfeiters. Without an aggressive crackdown by China's government, these marketplaces won't stand much of a chance against the fakes.

By many measures, counterfeiting is one of China's leading industrial sectors. A study by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce found that it brings in about $396 billion annually, representing some 12 percent of China's total exports and 1.5 percent of its gross domestic product.

The global outsourcing boom that started in the 1980s brought foreign factories and expertise to China. Workers at those factories excelled at making iPhones and other consumer goods, but also quickly learned how to knock them off.

Alibaba co-founder Jack Ma bluntly told a gathering of retailers last year that counterfeiters use exactly the same factories and raw materials as legitimate manufacturers.

As a China-based company, Alibaba has greater exposure to counterfeiting than Amazon does, given that Chinese consumers are generally quite price-sensitive and less averse to purchasing fakes. But it isn't helpless. For one thing, it could simplify its procedures for brand owners to report instances of counterfeiting. It could also use its global profile and political leverage to push the government to prosecute more counterfeiters. dailyrepublic.com

Milwaukee, WI: Man accused of stealing $55,000 in power tools from multiple Home Depots
Kyrus Porch, 43, is charged with seven felony counts of retail theft. Porch is responsible for allegedly stealing more than $22,000 worth of power tools from a Wauwatosa Home Depot alone.

Tinley Park, IL: Major crimes, including 2008 Lane Bryant slayings, focus of task force's work
On Jan. 8, 1993, two men entered a Brown's Chicken in northwest suburban Palatine and murdered the husband-and-wife owners, as well as five of their employees, stashing the bodies in the restaurant's freezer. What became known as the "Brown's Chicken Massacre" would influence the thinking of police chiefs in the south and southwest suburbs as far as how law enforcement investigates homicides, whether there's one victim or multiple on a mass scale. The formation in 1999 of the South Suburban Major Crimes Task Force was a result of the Brown's Chicken case, according to Tim McCarthy, chairman of the task force and police chief in Orland Park.

A part-time administrative director works in the task force headquarters in Oak Forest, inside the headquarters of the Cook County Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management. Formed in the years after the Palatine slayings, the task force got its own mass killing the morning of Feb. 2, 2008, when a man walked into a Tinley Park women's clothing store and opened fire on six women, killing five. Nobody has been arrested in connection with the slayings at the since-shuttered Lane Bryant store, and authorities have investigated thousands of leads over the years. "For a couple of years we had people working on it full time," McCarthy said. He said that the task force has been able to resolve close to 60 percent of the cases it's called to investigate. chicagotribune.com

Robberies & Thefts

Kansas City, KS: Jewelry Company Management accuses staff of theft of $300,000 in merchandise
Silpada Designs Inc., which shocked customers and sales representatives by closing suddenly last year, has sued three former employees and a Kansas City jewelry store over $300,000 in merchandise it said they conspired to steal and sell. The petition, filed last week, comes after more than two months of courtroom battles. Their dispute centers on Silpada-labeled boxes, jewelry and materials as well as purses, scarves and other accessories that the Lenexa-based company said had been earmarked for destruction. Instead, the company's recent filing claims, the employees used "insider knowledge," "the cover of darkness" and a forklift to take nearly 23,000 items with them. Silpada said it has video of the thefts taking place over several days in mid-October. Not so fast, say the employees and jewelry store operator. They argue this has to do with the confusion surrounding Silpada's shutdown, not some criminal conspiracy. kansascity.com
