The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Retail Violence is 'Endemic' in the UK
Retail crime remains ‘endemic’ as gangs cost sector £400m
Violence and abuse against retail workers has fallen by around a
fifth over the past year, but incidents remain near record levels,
with staff still facing an average of 1,600 cases every day, according
to the latest report from the British Retail Consortium (BRC).
However, the headline improvement masks the scale of the ongoing
challenge. The figure remains the second highest on record and
more than triple pre-pandemic levels, when daily incidents stood at
around 455. Physical assaults have shown little sign of easing, holding
steady at 118 per day, while there are still an average of 36 incidents
involving a weapon every day.
Helen Dickinson, chief executive of the BRC, said violence towards
shop workers remains “endemic”, warning that “no one should go to
work fearing for their safety”.
The report also highlights the persistent and evolving threat of theft.
Retailers detected 5.5 million incidents of shoplifting over the past
year, with losses estimated at £400m. The BRC cautioned that the
real figure is likely to be higher, as many offences go unreported.
Organised criminal gangs are increasingly “systematically” targeting
stores, often stealing high-value goods in bulk for resale.
Dickinson said gangs were moving “from one store to another, stealing
tens of thousands of pounds worth of goods in one go,” placing growing
pressure on frontline staff and loss prevention teams.
Chains including Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Co-op have introduced
protective tagging and plastic security cases for commonly stolen items.
The Heart of England Co-Op group said chocolate theft alone cost it
£250,000 last year, with some individual stores losing thousands of
pounds in a single week.
The BRC noted a modest improvement in police response, with 13
per cent of retailers rating it as good or excellent, up from 9 per cent
a year earlier. The government has also pledged £7m over three years
to boost the response to retail crime.
retailgazette.co.uk
Lowering or Removing Theft Thresholds
Removing ‘low level’ theft threshold could help to tackle rise in
chocolate theft
The government previously announced
measures aimed at tackling retail crime including the removal of the
£200 threshold for ‘low level’ theft.
It’s part of the Crime and Policing Bill which will pass into law soon
and retailers hope it will play a vital role in granting additional
legal protections for retail workers and bringing down levels of theft.
It should send a strong message to offenders that all theft will not
be tolerated.
According to the recent BRC Crime Report, theft remains a significant
challenge for retailers with 5.5m detected incidents of shoplifting
last year, costing retailers nearly £400m, but with many incidents
going undetected, the true cost is likely to be much higher.
This week the BBC reported that there has been a surge in chocolate
theft with industry experts warning they are then being resold to
fund wider criminal activity and some being stolen to order.
Chocolate has become a frequent target for shoplifters because it
is small, easily hidden and the products are widely popular.
Some supermarkets have been locking chocolate bars in plastic
anti-theft boxes while convenience retailer Sunita Aggarwal said she
only half fills shelves in order to minimise loss.
“Theft of chocolate and other products from convenience stores should
never be treated as low level crimes, as they have a serious impact
on retailers’ profitability and are offences often linked to wider, more
organised criminality.”

How Costco is Winning the War on Theft
Costco confirms ‘effective’ method for fighting retail theft plaguing
rivals like Walmart & Target
While rivals such as Walmart and Target are struggling to contain retail
theft, Costco has two main ways to fight the crime. Walmart and
Target continue to lose revenue annually as a result of rampant retail
theft, reported The Street on February 5.
Retailers have been beefing up in-store security as shoplifting cases
spiral in the States. Walmart could be losing as much as $3 billion a
year to theft, according to an estimate by Reuters. But Costco is
adamant that its losses are negligible.
And that’s due to the strict implementation of two rules. The warehouse
retailer now asks its members to show proof at entrances before
shopping. Costco expects customers to show a photo ID alongside
their membership card. Also, the chain asks shoppers to show their
receipts to checkers before they leave.
“By strictly controlling the entrances and exits and using a membership
format, we believe our inventory losses (shrinkage) are well below
those of typical retail operations,” said Costco in its 2025 Annual
Report.
“It’s our most effective method of maintaining accuracy in inventory
control, and it’s also a good way to ensure that our members have been
charged properly for their purchases.”

Trump Celebrates Falling Crime at SOTU
Falling U.S. crime rates predated 2nd Trump term
President Donald Trump touted the nation’s declining crime rate at
his marathon State of the Union address, celebrating the “big
success” of his deployment of National Guard troops into American
cities.
Trump said he inherited a nation beset by “rampant crime” when he took
office in 2025 but claimed his administration has since achieved a
“turnaround for the ages.” Trump said “the murder rate saw its single
largest decline in recorded history” in 2025. “The lowest number in
over 125 years – year 1900,” Trump said.
Violent crime has generally been falling in the United States since
reaching a peak in the 1990s. Violence surged during the onset of
the COVID-19 pandemic at the tail end of Trump’s first term but began
to recede while President Joe Biden was in office.
A January report from the Council on Criminal Justice found that the
number of homicides in 35 large cities declined 21% from 2024 to
2025.
If a similar decline is recorded in forthcoming FBI data, the
homicide rate for the country as a whole in 2025 will have dropped to
about 4 per 100,000 residents, which would be both the largest
percentage drop in homicides in a single year and the lowest homicide
rate recorded since 1900.

LP Jobs in the AI Age
Retail Loss Prevention Careers Are Becoming Technology-Driven Leadership
Roles
By
the D&D Daily staff
Retail loss prevention is no longer defined by floor walks and camera
reviews. Across the industry, the function is evolving into a
technology-enabled, data-informed discipline that plays a strategic role
in store performance and operational efficiency.
Recent retail technology research shows that a strong majority of large
retailers are investing in artificial intelligence, advanced analytics
and automation to support asset protection efforts. Rather than
replacing professionals, these tools are reshaping how they work —
and expanding career opportunities in the process.
Today’s AI-enabled systems can automatically flag transaction
irregularities, identify operational inconsistencies and prioritize
areas that need review. Video analytics platforms use machine
learning to detect patterns and surface exceptions, dramatically
reducing the time spent manually reviewing footage. Exception-based
reporting tools help teams focus on high-value tasks instead of routine
monitoring.
This shift allows loss prevention professionals to move from reactive
review to proactive analysis.
As a result, new career pathways are emerging within retail
organizations. Roles such as Loss Prevention Analyst, Asset
Protection Data Specialist and LP Technology Manager are becoming more
common. These positions require comfort with dashboards, reporting
platforms and AI-driven insights — as well as the ability to communicate
findings clearly to store leadership and executive teams.
The modern LP professional is increasingly a cross-functional partner.
They collaborate with IT teams on system implementation, work with
operations leaders on workflow improvements and help guide store-level
strategy using data-backed insights. In many organizations, loss
prevention leaders now contribute to broader operational planning,
including staffing models and inventory processes.
Retailers are also investing more heavily in training and upskilling
to ensure teams can effectively use new tools. Skills such as data
literacy, project management and technology integration are becoming
just as important as traditional field experience.
For professionals considering a career in retail loss prevention, the
field offers a blend of technology, operations and leadership. As AI
adoption continues to grow, LP careers are positioning themselves at the
intersection of analytics and strategy — making them one of the more
dynamic paths within modern retail.
AI & Supply Chains
Supply Chains of the Future Will Rely Heavily on AI
New research from Gartner suggests
that AI will be central to supply chain operations in the immediate
future.
Supply chains as they exist today will struggle to maintain their
effectiveness over the next two years. The supply chain landscape is
being reshaped by forces that demand swift and strategic responses from
chief supply chain officers (CSCOs). These supply chain reshapers —
advancements in artificial intelligence, geopolitical instability and
conflict risk, and evolving customer expectations — will
fundamentally alter how organizations operate and compete in the future.
Some supply chain organizations are moving faster than others toward a
competitive future state. What differentiates the leaders is how they
respond to the forces reshaping supply chain. Leaders don’t wait for
certainty to adapt to change; they actively influence the future and
proactively rethink their ways of working. Among those that view
AI-driven changes to work as a top driver of supply chain transformation,
81% of leaders are confident or very confident in their ability to
address the impact of changes, while only 54% of the rest of respondents
report the same.
The future of the supply chain is already here. Leaders are
choosing where and how they will accelerate toward this new reality,
offering a blueprint for others to follow. Gartner has identified three
critical areas for CSCOs to focus on in 2026 to ensure their supply
chains are future-fit.

Cybersecurity #1 Business Threat?
Most businesses view cybersecurity as a bigger threat than tariffs or
geopolitical instabilities
Per a recent study by supply chain
intelligence firm Zero100, over a third of businesses considered cyber
incidents “the biggest threat to continuity” in 2026.
If there’s one thing businesses today are afraid of—ahead of potentially
losing customers—it’s cybersecurity.
Per a recent study from supply chain intelligence firm Zero100, over
a third of businesses considered cyber incidents “the single biggest
threat to continuity” in 2026, followed by geopolitical instability
(20%), trade policy shocks (16%), and labor disruption (8%).
The findings, which were based on responses from COOs of companies
with a more than $1 billion valuation, also found that cyber
incidents were the “fastest-moving shock” businesses anticipated facing.
COOs were split on whether AI will help or hurt: 50% said it could
improve cyber-risk mitigation, while 43% said it would likely make
things worse. Meanwhile, fewer than 1 in 5 respondents believe AI
will live up to the ambitious productivity and efficiency timelines
being sold to shareholders.
“A major cyber failure can do far more immediate damage than tariffs
or trade disputes to company profitability—and even entire economies,
as last year’s JLR incident in the UK demonstrated,” Lauren Acoba, VP of
research and advisory services at Zero100, said in a statement, adding
that “while CEOs are talking up AI to shareholders as a productivity
engine, inside the business the mood is far more guarded. Operations
leaders believe in AI’s potential, but they don’t believe the
timelines.”
These concerns aren’t unfounded. While many retailers in the UK have had
firsthand experience with cyberattacks, a May 2025 report from Google
Threat Intelligence Group and its subsidiary Mandiant found certain
cybercrime groups were targeting US-based retail companies.
To get ahead of it, many companies have been ramping up investments
in technologies such as biometrics, tokenization, and AI-driven
monitoring systems to detect and prevent increasingly sophisticated
attacks and fraudulent transactions.

Cyberattacks Becoming Faster & Easier
AI accelerates lateral movement in cyberattacks
New research paints a grim picture
of how the technology is making cyberattacks faster and easier for
threat actors.
Hackers are increasingly integrating artificial intelligence into all
phases of the cyberattack life cycle, with the technology regularly
analyzing target information, generating phishing emails and providing
coding assistance, security firm ReliaQuest said in a report published
on Tuesday.
Other recent reports from IBM and cyber insurer Resilience similarly
highlight how AI has changed the threat landscape. At the same
time, a new Sophos report said it was important to put in perspective
AI’s capabilities and impact.
AI is dramatically speeding up key stages of a cyberattack, according to
ReliaQuest’s latest report.
Thanks to automation, adversaries can begin moving laterally across a
victim network within as little as four minutes, an 85% drop from the
fastest-observed lateral movement in 2024. The average amount of
time it took hackers to move laterally in a victim’s network dropped 29%,
from 48 minutes in 2024 to 34 minutes in 2025.
Data exfiltration is also speeding up, with the fastest attack
taking roughly six minutes — a dramatic decline from more than four
hours in 2024. AI and automation have played an important role in that
evolution, with ReliaQuest finding that 80% of ransomware groups are now
using one or both technologies, including for stealing data.
One piece of AI-powered malware illustrates the trends that ReliaQuest’s
report describes: the BoaLoader malware, which researchers said “reflects
the first major convergence of AI-assisted development, social
engineering, and traditional cybercrime.” Despite BoaLoader only
appearing toward the end of 2025, ReliaQuest observed hackers using it
in roughly one-fifth of all incidents last year.

Employee Negligence Costing Companies
Big
The $19.5 million insider risk problem
Routine employee activity across corporate systems carries an average
annual cost of $19.5 million per organization. That figure comes
from the 2026 Cost of Insider Risks Global Report, conducted by the
Ponemon Institute and based on data from 354 organizations that
experienced one or more material insider related incidents over the past
year.
Negligent or mistaken insiders account for the largest share of
financial impact. These incidents generate $10.3 million in
annualized cost per organization, with an average cost of $747,107 per
incident and 13.8 incidents per organization each year. Malicious
insiders account for $4.7 million in annualized cost, and credential
theft incidents add another $4.5 million.
Containment remains the most expensive phase of the incident
lifecycle. The average cost of containment is $247,587 per incident.
Organizations spend an average of 67 days containing an insider event.
Incidents resolved in under 30 days carry annualized costs of $14.2
million. When containment extends beyond 90 days, annualized costs reach
$21.9 million.
Negligence and AI usage intersect
Employee negligence continues to dominate incident frequency, and
its financial impact has increased year over year. The annualized cost
tied to negligent or mistaken insiders rose from $8.8 million in 2024 to
$10.3 million in 2025.
GenAI has altered how employees access and share information. Most
organizations report changes in workforce behavior tied to AI use, yet
only a small share have formally embedded generative AI into business
strategy. Concern about unauthorized AI creating unseen data
exfiltration paths remains widespread, and only a limited portion of
organizations have integrated AI governance into insider risk management
programs.

Amazon Intentionally Inflating Prices?
Amazon accused of massive scheme to keep your prices high
A three-year-old lawsuit in California seeks to immediately stop
Amazon from inflating consumer prices and punishing third-party
sellers who offer lower prices on other retail websites.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta requested a preliminary
injunction on Feb. 23 in an existing antitrust case against Amazon,
citing new evidence of price fixing.
According to court documents, the e-commerce giant forced third-party
sellers into anticompetitive agreements to prevent them from offering
lower prices on different online retailers, which has caused prices
to increase for California consumers shopping both on and off Amazon’s
platform.
“It is better for the Amazon “customer experience” if consumers do not
see lower prices off Amazon—regardless of whether they are actually
getting the lowest prices possible,” the document reads.
The lawsuit claims that the agreements are to protect Amazon from
price competition and establish Amazon’s dominance in the
marketplace by preventing competition, harming consumers and
California’s economy.
Amazon has more than 200 million Prime members in the U.S.
According to the company, 92% of consumers say they are more likely to
purchase items from Amazon than other online retail websites and 56% say
they visit the website daily or a few times a week.
“My office has uncovered evidence that Amazon bullied vendors to hike
up the price of their products sold at other shops, or secured the
removal of these products altogether, to ensure Amazon was the cheapest
place consumers could find products,” Attorney General Bonta said in a
press release.
“In other words, while consumers face a crisis of affordability,
Amazon blatantly worked to ensure that consumers could not find cheaper
products out in the marketplace, all the while raking in unlawful
profits from Americans who genuinely thought they were getting the best
deal,” said Bonta in the statement.

St. Louis, MO: DOJ: Man Sentenced to 87 Months for $300K Kohl’s Cash
Scam
U.S. District Judge Henry E. Autrey on Thursday sentenced a man who
stole nearly $300,000 worth of online merchandise from Kohl’s to 87
months in prison. Judge Autrey also ordered Marshall Lampkin, 36, to pay
the retailer $301,713 and forfeit the stolen items that have been
recovered. According to evidence and testimony at Lampkin’s trial in
August, Lampkin carried out his scheme by first using Kohl’s Cash to
purchase merchandise in a Kohl’s store, generally for more than $1,000.
He would then immediately use the same Kohl’s Cash to order merchandise
online, knowing that the in-person transaction had not yet registered.
Lampkin returned the items he bought in the store for Kohl’s Cash so he
could repeat his scam, evidence and testimony showed. Lampkin used the
scheme hundreds of times at dozens of stores in more than a dozen
states. Kohl’s asked Lampkin to stop, deactivated his online account and
alerted stores, but Lampkin continued by recruiting multiple
accomplices, Assistant U.S. Attorney Justin Ladendorf said during
Thursday’s hearing. Lampkin had his $293,000 in online purchases, which
included flooring, furniture, small appliances and other items, shipped
to storage units in St. Louis and a relative’s house in Illinois. He
then sold or tried to sell those items by advertising them on Facebook.

Memphis, TN: $235K Worth of Bluetooth Equipment Reported Stolen from
Memphis Warehouse
A Memphis warehouse is suddenly missing about 1,690 Marshall Bluetooth
speakers, worth more than $235,000 in retail value, after a pickup on
Nov. 11, 2025, police said. Workers realized the shipment was gone when
inventory checks showed 17 pallets of speakers had vanished, and Memphis
police have opened an investigation into the loss. According to WREG,
the missing pallets were loaded with Marshall Acton III speakers, and an
employee told investigators the freight was supposed to be headed to a
Best Buy in California. That employee said he believes a truck driver
used a falsified bill of lading along with a seal-matching stamp to walk
off with the load.

Edenton, NC: Update: Man sentenced to 7 to 10 years in prison for Food Lion
shooting that injured 2 people
The man who injured two people in a 2025 shooting at an Edenton Food Lion was
sentenced to 83 to 113 months in prison on Thursday, according to the District
Attorney's office. On May 4, Edenton police arrived at a Food Lion on Virginia
Road in Edenton after many 911 calls about an active shooter situation.
