Security steps to safeguard shoppers from terrorism
The terrorist atrocities in Manchester and
London have put security at the top of the national agenda. But how can shopping
centres and retailers protect shoppers?
The breaking news alert was ominous – casualties at the Manchester Arena due to
a possible explosion. Within minutes, and with a sickening inevitability,
reality dawned: this was no accident.
In the grim aftermath of a terror attack, there are questions to ask. With close
surveillance of suspects, how could this have happened? Could more have been
done to protect the public that night? And if it can happen at a crowded arena,
or at a bustling nightspot such as Borough Market, are other public places, like
shopping centres, just as vulnerable?
Sadly, this last question has already been answered. The brutal terrorist attack
on the Westgate Mall in Nairobi in 2013 exposed just how vulnerable shoppers and
shopping centres can be.
Protecting shopping centres
Indeed, the UK National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO), in a
comprehensive guidance document for shopping centres, is explicitly clear that
malls “are likely to feature in the attack plans of terrorist organisations in
the future”.
So with the possibility of further attacks now all too real, what is the latest
thinking in shopping centre security? And what do centre managers and occupiers
need to know to mitigate the risk?
As times have changed, so has terrorism, says Robert Clark, director of
specialist security training company Templewood Training Services.
“Now we’re dealing with a very dangerous threat because it’s totally
unpredictable; it could be an individual with a knife or an individual who plans
to make an improvised explosive device (IED), or a group that is committed and
equipped. They used to make demands, now they just want to murder as many people as
possible.”
Reacting to new threats
Hammerson portfolio security manager Graham Williams says that recent times have
been a learning process for all retail property managers.
“It has enabled us to develop mechanisms to rapidly distribute information and
intelligence and as a shopping centre ‘community’ we work in a much more
collaborative style, acknowledging there are no commercial sensitivities in
co-operating to protect everyone coming to our centres.”
Schuh head of store operations Phil Whittle agrees: “It’s all about the training
as you don’t know what you’re faced with until you’re in the situation. A bomb
attack is very different to armed gunmen,” he says.
Schuh has had a plan in place for the past 18 months, following the attacks in
Paris in November 2015. Following the Manchester Arena attack, the training
course has been refreshed and redistributed to all of Schuh’s store staff.
The footwear retailer also has a “grab bag” in each store, which provides
staff with essentials for emergency situations, including torches, cling
film for first aid, and maps of the store.
The big dilemmas
In the aftermath of the Manchester Arena bomb, Brent Cross shopping centre
searched every person entering the development and all bins and charging points
were removed from the building.
“Anywhere the public gathers in large numbers is a potential target for
terrorism and needs to be managed in that way,” says Blight. “But it has to be
done in a way that gives people access and freedom to go about their day; it’s
got to be commensurate with the threat level. There’s a fine balance.”
Part of this balance is managing the most conspicuous form of protection –
security guards.
In its own guidance to shopping centre owners, high street landlords and
retailers, Revo says that security officers are “on the one hand, the first and
last line of defence from a safety and security perspective, however, on the
other hand, are a very valuable customer-facing asset”.

Orlando Rampage
Disgruntled ex-employee kills five and himself in workplace shooting
Five
people were shot and killed at an Orlando business on Monday morning by a
"disgruntled" former employee who then turned the gun on himself, police said.
Officers responded to a call about an active shooter at Fiamma off Forsyth Road
in Orange County, near Full Sail University, just after 8 a.m., Orange County
Sheriff Jerry Demings said in a news conference. Deputies arrived two minutes
later, where they found three men and a woman dead at the scene. A fifth person,
a man, was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Seven people
survived the shooting.
Demings said that the alleged shooter, who killed himself, was identified as a
45-year-old man who had been fired from Fiamma Inc., an awning manufacturing
company, back in April. The employee had a criminal history "minor in
nature," with arrests for possession of marijuana and DUI. Officers had been
called to the company back in June 2014 for a "workplace violence incident" in
which "he allegedly battled another employee here in the business," Demings
said.

Webinar: 'Recognizing Security Blowback'
Active Shooter Prevention and Response and Best Practices
The CIA coined the term “blowback” in 1953, denoting the unintended
consequences, side-effects, or suffered repercussions of a covert operation. To
the civilians suffering the blowback of covert operations, the effect typically
manifests itself as "random" acts of violence without a discernible, direct
cause.
With active shooter situations, security professionals can mitigate the event
more successfully if they know the circumstances of why an employee or outside
party wants to create harm. Thus, blowback is an important and relevant term for
security professionals to prevent and respond to active shooters.
Jim Sawyer, Director of Security for Seattle Children’s Hospital, presents this
compelling Web Seminar on active shooter prevention. This webinar takes place
Tuesday, June 27 at 2 PM ET.

Police in Kent., Wash., Will No Longer Respond to Non-Verified Business Alarms
Effective June 1, Kent, Washington law enforcement officers are no longer
responding to non-verified, nuisance or chronic security alarms at businesses in
order to free up officers to deal with crimes across the city, located about 20
miles south of Seattle.
The Kent Police Department says it spends more than five hours per day
responding to business alarms, often triggered by employees at opening or
closing time, Chief Ken Thomas told the newspaper. Thomas says about 99% of the
nearly 3,000 alarm calls the department receives each year turn out to be false.
“It’s a waste of resources,” Thomas said. “We spend about $80,000 a year in
response to false alarms.”
Police will establish a verified alarm response protocol to other alarms that
must meet a certain criteria. Officers will continue responding to high-risk
alarms like gun stores or pharmacies.

Whole Foods Market overcharging allegations resurface
On Friday, June 2, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City
ordered Whole Foods Market to face a proposed class-action lawsuit accusing it
of overcharging shoppers in New York City. The suit claims the chain overstated
the weight of pre-packaged food in its supermarkets, according to Reuters.
The chain underwent an investigation in 2015, accused of routinely overcharging
customers on groceries. These inspections dated back to at least 2010.
Lead plaintiff Sean John’s July 2015 complaint alleged that Whole Foods Market
Group Inc. overcharged for its prepackaged foods, and John attached
a report issued by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs to
support his claims. The report showed that the DCA had tested 80 types of Whole
Foods prepackaged goods in the city and found that 89 percent of them were
missing more product than is allowed under federal guidelines.

Compliance Officers Less Worried About Liability
Concerns about personal liability have lessened somewhat for compliance
professionals but a survey shows they continue to be a big worry for those
tasked with handling compliance for their organization. A survey of 137
corporate in-house counsel, compliance professionals and board members worldwide
by law firm DLA Piper found 67% of chief compliance officers said they remained
at least somewhat concerned about their personal liability, down from 81% in
2016. “The fact that two out of every three respondents remain concerned is
significant–and indicates that an evolving compliance landscape, both in the
U.S. and abroad, still keeps many executives up at night,” stated the survey
report. “It could also indicate a general sense that compliance executives
should never rest easy.”
Asked what area of their program was weakest, 46% of compliance officers said
monitoring, down from 66% in 2016. Training is another area of focus, as 44% of
directors said they have yet to receive training on compliance issues.
Eighty-four percent of the compliance people said they had sufficient resources
to do their jobs, up from 77% last year - while 38% said they didn’t have enough
resources, up from 28% in 2016.

Ex-CEO Tells 2nd Circ. Feds Implied Others' Guilt On Him
The former CEO of a defunct vending machine sales company asked the Second
Circuit on Wednesday to toss his fraud convictions, because the government
improperly implied in its rebuttal argument that he was guilty because eight
co-defendants pled guilty, and the judge did not immediately issue a limiting
instruction to the jury.
Edward Morris Weaver, the former head of Multivend LLC, was convicted in 2015 of
mail fraud, wire fraud, a related conspiracy and making a false statement. Back
in 2012, a DOJ indictment said Weaver and a number of employees ran a fraudulent
business selling 25-cent candy vending machines as "business opportunities,"
sometimes for more than $10,000 for 20 to 30 machines, promising owners they
could make $800 a day or more in return.
Multivend, which did business as Vendstar, would connect the buyers with
"locators" who promised to put the machines in busy areas, not telling them the
locators and Vendstar were working together, according to the indictment.

Melbourne,
Australia: Businessman's novel approach to preventing retail crime
A businessman has come up with an innovative way to overcome the recent spike in
Melbourne's retail crime and cut costs at the same time. Hari Shotham has a
thriving 24-hour convenience store in St Kilda. But he doesn't spend any money
paying security or shop staff, unlike the 7/11 next door. Mr Shotham's novel
approach to retail: a shop filled with nothing but vending machines. "We want to
be a convenience store at a price that people are happy with, as well. We're not
here to rip off the customer, we are here to make the customer happy," he told A
Current Affair.

Suspect involved in eBay counterfeit airbags scheme
pleads guilty
Vitaliy Fedorchuk, 28, of Antelope, pleaded guilty today to five counts of
mail fraud for an international scheme to sell counterfeit airbags via eBay and
other internet sales sites, U.S. Attorney Phillip A. Talbert announced.
According to court documents, between June 23, 2014, and July 27, 2016,
Fedorchuk offered for sale airbag modules, covers, and manufacturer emblems at
his eBay online store, redbarnautoparts. Fedorchuk falsely advertised that the
counterfeit airbags were original equipment from major automobile manufacturers
such as Honda, Fiat, Chrysler, Nissan, Toyota, GMC and Ford. During the scheme,
Fedorchuk sold hundreds of counterfeit airbags and obtained more than $95,000.

Free Whitepaper - EAS Tag Recirculation
Apparel
Source Tagging for Today's Retailers
Electronic
Article Surveillance (EAS) Source Tagging and EAS Tag Recirculation are playing
a large role in the evolution of retail logistics and loss prevention. Retailers
realize that in-store tagging is very expensive, time consuming, and highly
inefficient, and they are looking toward solutions that move EAS tagging to the
most economical place in the logistics chain - out of the store, and back toward
where the merchandise is manufactured.
Enterprising early adopters, such as Kohl's, Gap, Inc., Zara and bebe have
proven that EAS Tag Recirculation provides important benefits, including:
●
Predictable cost of operating an EAS program.
●
No capital requirements for additional EAS tags.
●
Merchandise arrives at stores source tagged, secure and floor ready.
●
More tagging consistency, less apparel damage.
●
Maximum tagging protection during peak inventory periods.
●
No customer issues with tag pollution, when un-deactivated EAS sewn-in labels
set off alarms.
●
No environmental issues caused by the non-degradable components of disposable
labels
●
More security and better shortage reduction results than with sewn-in or
disposable EAS
●
Cash rebates for the return of tags and pins.
By implementing EAS Tag Recirculation, retailers achieve higher levels of
efficiency and customer satisfaction through this sustainable, innovative growth
program spearheaded by their loss prevention department.

Asda reduces workload with Profitect data analytics
Asda
is using data analytics to identify a series of patterns to reduce unnecessary
information in its weekly reports. The grocer conducts 95 weekly reports, but is
working with software company
Profitect to reduce the noise in those documents which are not actioned by
the business.
"I have a small team of five, and just under 100 pieces of reporting gets
circulated around the business - drowning in reports is the position we found
ourselves in," said James Newton, insight manager at Asda. "We became leaner in
our retail model, but our reporting didn't suit that."
So far the retailer has identified 50 patterns with Profitect to help improve
its weekly reporting. One such pattern will reduce the workload involved in
price changing by 60%.

How AI like Machine Learning & Vision Recognition Prevents Fraud
Machine Learning (sometimes called Adaptive Learning) is crucial to the
high-risk processing industry’s ability to detect and respond to fraud.
Generally speaking, Machine Learning describes a process by which a software
model is constructed and vast volumes of data are compared against it. Learning
algorithms enable the model to evolve in response to changes in the incoming
data.
For example, financial services companies develop Machine Learning models with
rules that outline typical fraudulent activity. The software can review data as
it comes in and flag patterns that match the fraud model - indicating the
transactions should be investigated. As more and more transactions and patterns
are examined, the model can develop itself based on learning algorithms.
Such Machine Learning models can also help high-risk payment companies optimize
product offerings, detect money laundering schemes, and perform online risk
management.
One example of how machine learning can help the high-risk merchant industry
combat fraud is Simility’s introduction of a new AI-based fraud prevention
platform. The company’s Adpative 3-D Secure software uses Machine Learning to
create rule-based models that can evaluate each transaction in real-time. The AI
looks at device fingerprinting, behavioral analytics, proxy filtering, and
geolocation to identify high risk transactions. And, because of that AI model,
Simility is able to ask for secure authentication only for truly high-risk
transactions where fraud could be present. This makes the payment process easier
for customers, while offering chargeback protection for merchants.
Vision recognition technology is a breed of AI that allows the software to
identify objects. In the high-risk payments industry this is particularly
applicable to fingerprint or facial recognition as second level authentication
methods. The technology enables customers to easily make mobile payments and
provides security from fraud at the point of sale. Apple Pay uses this type of
AI to secure POS payments by requiring fingerprint ID for each iPhone or iPad
transaction. Flint and Square use the technology to allow merchants to accept
payments on their mobile - using the phone’s camera and VR capabilities to
confirm that the card information being processed is legit. In the high-risk
processing world, VR is important because it’s authentication capabilities
reduce chargeback rates for companies targeted by fraudsters.

Using Bitcoin to prevent identity theft
A reaction to the 2008 financial crisis, Bitcoin is a digital-currency scheme
designed to wrest control of the monetary system from central banks. With
Bitcoin, anyone can mint money, provided he or she can complete a complex
computation quickly enough. Through a set of clever protocols, that
computational hurdle prevents the system from being co-opted by malicious
hackers. Researchers from MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence
Laboratory presented a new system that uses Bitcoin’s security machinery to
defend against online identity theft. The system piggybacks on the digital
currency’s security protocols to thwart hijacked servers.

Wal-Mart invests in VR for HR
Wal-Mart has been testing virtual reality in 31 of its training facilities in
recent months and plans to soon expand the program, a spokeswoman for Wal-Mart
said in an email to Retail Dive.
On a
company blog, Wal-Mart said the technology could be used, among other
things, to help prepare employees for busy store conditions, such as during the
holiday season and to help associates learn how to execute tasks without
disrupting the flow of shopping in stores.
The retailer anticipates it will ultimately use VR to help train some 140,000
associates annually at its employee “academies,” which are expected to number
200 by the end of the year, the Wal-Mart spokeswoman noted.

The security shadow over
e-commerce It seems that only a few years ago,
consumers just clicked on a link and quickly bought their desired products. That
experience has now transformed into a full-fledged shopping phenomenon complete
with product research, price comparisons, recommendation reviews,
three-dimensional fitting—and this is all before the actual purchase and
shipping option selection.
Accommodating customer needs and creating this
rich tapestry of virtual merchandise displays requires a variety of
functionality. Those new functionalities, however, are not as homegrown as they
once were, which presents a bevy of risks to the e-commerce operator.
At one time, 90% of all code executing on a typical website was
owned and operated in-house. Today, that figure has almost been completely
inverted with at least 78% of code now provided and managed by third parties
that deploy their applications outside of the purview of the website operator’s
IT, data privacy and security infrastructures. Increasingly, this code is
unknown to IT and, therefore, becomes a significant contributor to “digital
shadow IT”.
The problem with digital shadow IT is that it is
frequently targeted by hackers and cybercriminals who—knowing they can
evade detection by the website operator—continuously probe those applications
for vulnerabilities to inject malicious code.
Magento’s open source
content management system tailored for e-commerce and used by more than
200,000 companies worldwide, was one such example in which
cybercriminals in 2015 used malware to infect thousands of domains
in a matter of days through third-party extensions.

Ex-Exec Pleads Guilty Over E-Commerce Investment Scheme
A former executive of a now-defunct e-commerce company has pled guilty in
Florida federal court to a conspiracy charge linked to an alleged scheme that
exaggerated his company's value to be worth between $450 million and $540
million despite the business earning little, if any, money.
Terrance F. Taylor, the former executive vice president of finance at Savtira
Corp. Inc., copped to a wire fraud conspiracy charge on Wednesday over what
prosecutors say was a fraudulent investment ploy based on false company
valuations.
Prosecutors charged Taylor and alleged co-conspirator, Timothy Munro Roberts, in
September 2015, saying they labeled Savtira as profitable while touting its
patents and agreements with nationally known technology firms. The pair claimed
Savtira offered a centralized, cloud-based shopping cart platform that could be
used by online and traditional retailers during online purchases regardless of
the device being used by the buyer, according to the government. In reality,
Savtira owned no patents and never had a working product, authorities said.

Queens, NY: $200K
Counterfeit credit card ring is tied to Street Gang
Eleven people have been charged this week for their alleged roles in a credit
card fraud ring based in south Queens that prosecutors say is connected to a
violent street gang, prosecutors announced on Friday. Queens District Attorney
Richard A. Brown said the suspects took stolen credit card information and
embedded it onto phony Visa, MasterCard and American Express
credit cards that were then used to purchase expensive, high-tech items and
high-end cosmetics from stores across the tri-state area and the Eastern
Seaboard. he forged cards were then provided to male and female shoppers
associated with the theft ring, who then went out and purchased electronics
including Apple iPads. Between October 2016 and February of this year, Brown
said, the shoppers obtained more than $50,000 in cosmetics, gift cards and other
items in visits to Sephora stores across New York, Connecticut, Virginia and
Maryland. Law enforcement sources said the ring participants also used the fake
cards to purchase more than $200,000 in merchandise from various Target and Best
Buy stories in Long Island, Brooklyn, Staten Island and West Nyack, NY.

themselves at different times, in different places, and from people you'd never

define you. Because bumps are growth opportunities merely masked in conflict.
