Your LP Tech Roadmap. From Devices to Agentic AI.
 This
Agilence
whitepaper introduces the Loss Prevention Maturity Model, a
practical framework grounded in real-world operations. It outlines four
stages of LP evolution: Devices, Analytics, AI, and Agentic AI. Each
stage has clear characteristics, specific technological requirements,
and defined advancement criteria.
The model clarifies how foundational LP technologies build on one
another, progressing from physical devices to the use of data generated
by those devices. We then explore the potential of AI and how LP
technology is in a process of shifting from reactive surveillance to
proactive intelligence and ultimately toward autonomous action.
It offers benchmarks for self-assessment, the implementation challenges
and prerequisites of each stage, and the steps LP organizations can take
to progress through the stages. Most importantly, it provides a coherent
roadmap for navigating rapid change, empowering organizations to move
from doing more with less to achieving more with technology.

The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Shoppers Fear Retail Lots After Dark
Survey: Consumers fear retail parking lots after dark
Retail center owners and operators
have room for improvement when it comes to parking lot safety.
According to a new survey from LiveView Technologies (LVT), more than
half (52%) of American women, along with 41% of men, would avoid large,
open-air retail parking lots after dark due to personal safety
concerns.
Women aged 65 and up (63%) are more likely than those aged 18-64
(48%) to avoid these areas, while men aged 65 and up (47%) said they
would avoid them. Nighttime avoidance is higher among those living
in the Midwest (52%) compared to those in the Northeast (43%) and West
(42%), while 77% of Americans living in the South shared potential
nighttime avoidance.
Potential daytime parking lot safety concerns are higher among women
aged 18-34 (34%) than those aged 35 and up (22%) and men of the same age
(19%). Three-in-10 Gen Z (ages 18-29) respondents and 19% of all other
generations said they would feel very or somewhat unsafe in large
open-air retail parking lots during the day.
LVT found that men and women expressed near equal levels of agreement
(34% and 33%, respectively) that these spaces
need increased security at any time of day.
“Men and women alike are concerned about their safety in parking
lots, especially after dark, which could impact overall store foot
traffic and sales,” said Matt Kelley, senior VP of business and
market development at LVT. “Retailers can better secure parking lots and
increase the sense of safety by ensuring optimal lighting, establishing
visibility with human guards or through video security solutions, and
offering assistance to customers who may appreciate a store associate
accompanying them to their vehicle. Proactive communication around a
store’s safety efforts can help alleviate shopper fears around safety at
all hours.”
When it comes to safety solutions for public areas, 84% of those
surveyed said the presence of a highly visible security camera would
increase their sense of safety when visiting a public place at night
they would otherwise avoid. More than half (54%) believe cameras should
be highly visible and clearly announced to maximize public awareness.

Australia Battles Violent Retail Crime
Opinion: Ben Carroll’s first test is keeping shop workers alive
The horrific alleged attack on a
Melbourne retail worker is an extreme and devastating example of the
violence playing out in stores across Victoria.
Victorian Premier Ben Carroll has signalled he wants to reset the
state’s relationship with business. That is welcome, but to make
that reset credible, he must confront Victoria’s retail crime
epidemic.
The urgency of that task has been laid bare by the horrific alleged
attack on a retail worker in the Melbourne suburb of Sunshine on
Saturday.
Police allege the 60-year-old man went to help another employee
after a group of teenagers stole from the shop. He allegedly fell
and struck his head before members of the group repeatedly assaulted him
for several minutes and fled.
The worker sustained catastrophic injuries. A court has since heard that
he is not expected to survive. Five teenagers have been charged.
No one should face this level of violence simply for going to work.
Yet this alleged attack is an extreme and devastating example of the
violence playing out in stores across Victoria.
Crime Statistics Agency data shows 4823 assault and related offences
were recorded at Victorian retail locations in the year to March 2026.
Stalking, harassment and threatening behaviour increased by 10.1 per
cent in one year and by about 35 per cent since 2022.
Crime intelligence platform
Auror estimates that
about 100 violent crime events occur in Victorian retail settings every
day, accounting for more than one-third of Australia’s total
daily retail violence. It is therefore unsurprising that retailers have
lost confidence in the state’s handling of crime.

Nationwide Violent Crime Drop
Violent crime falling further across many large cities: Report
Violent crime rates are falling in major cities around the United
States this year compared to 2025, continuing a steady decline since
2022. This comes after the COVID-19 pandemic saw a record-breaking spike
in homicides.
The report from the Major Cities Chiefs Association (MCCA) released
Sunday details 66 U.S. law enforcement agencies who have seen
homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assault drop overall compared
to last year.
MCCA reported that homicide rates dropped 17.2
percent, rape 6.2 percent, robbery 16.6 percent and aggravated assault
5.7 percent during the first six months of the year.
The MCCA cautioned that the numbers are preliminary and are not
final FBI crime statistics.
The Council on Criminal Justice (CCJ) reported similar lows,
citing a continued decline beginning in the second half of 2022 after
peaking amid the COVID-19 pandemic and nationwide protests that followed
the police killing of George Floyd.
The shift in technology has been significantly documented as the
Department of Homeland Security began a buildout to track migrants and
U.S. citizens.
ICE officers are already using several facial recognition
technologies, including the Mobile Fortify app, which can capture
facial images, contactless fingerprints and photos of identity documents
to determine whether they are citizens.
The rollout of Flock cameras has also begun. The solar-powered
license plate readers collect and record data into a database that lets
partner agencies search license plate numbers, identifying features like
bumper stickers, the make and model of cars and more.

Another City Sees Sharp Property Crime
Drop
Phoenix crime tracking decline this year
Crime has been trending downward in Phoenix for several years, and newly
released state data show the decline continuing into 2026 –
although an incomplete year makes direct comparisons with previous
annual totals difficult.
The current data also show the clearance rate for all crime – the number
that ended in arrest or were closed for other reasons – is at 19.27%,
slightly below the 2025 rate of 20.13%.
However, the clearance rate for violent crime is 30.78% so far
this year while the clearance rate for property
crimes is between 10.12% for burglaries and only 6.71% for
vehicle thefts.
The data show 2,341 burglaries so far this year – a 48.1% decline.
They split almost in half between homes and businesses, 52.5% to
47.5%, respectively. Non-forced entry accounted for 44.4% of the
burglaries.
Sundays and Mondays were slightly more common days for
burglaries, while midnight to 2 a.m. was by far the most common time.
Like burglaries, they pretty much occurred evenly across seven days.
Larceny, described as “unlawful taking, carrying or riding away of
property” totaled 12,246 cases – a 48.9% drop.
Businesses accounted for 47.7% of the locations where those crimes
occurred, followed by 28% residences and 15.9% roads or garages.
Shoplifting was the most common at 32.4%
while thefts from vehicles accounted for 17.7%

How AI Reshapes LP Investigations
AI Is Changing the LP
Investigator’s Job
 By
the D&D Daily staff
Artificial intelligence is becoming a larger part of retail loss
prevention, but its biggest impact may not be replacing traditional LP
functions. Instead, the technology is increasingly changing how
investigators spend their time.
Retailers have access to more information than ever, including
surveillance video, transaction records, exception reports,
access-control data and incident histories. Sorting through that
information manually can consume hours of an investigator’s day,
particularly when an incident involves multiple transactions, locations
or systems.
AI-powered tools are increasingly being used to narrow that workload.
Video analytics can help investigators search large amounts of
footage based on specific characteristics or activity rather than
reviewing recordings minute by minute. Transaction analytics can
identify unusual patterns for further review, while newer
case-management and intelligence platforms can help connect information
that might otherwise remain scattered across separate systems.
That changes the investigator’s role from simply finding information to
determining what the information actually means.
The distinction is important. An alert or anomaly identified by
technology isn't necessarily evidence of wrongdoing. Investigators
still need to establish context, verify information and determine
whether an event warrants additional attention. Human judgment becomes
particularly important when automated systems generate false positives
or when legitimate activity resembles behavior the technology has been
designed to flag.
As these capabilities expand, the skill set required of LP
professionals may evolve with them. Investigators will increasingly
need to understand how automated systems reach conclusions, recognize
their limitations and combine technology-generated insights with
traditional investigative techniques.
For retailers, the potential benefit isn't simply faster investigations.
Automating repetitive searches and data review can allow experienced
LP professionals to devote more attention to complex cases,
operational vulnerabilities and prevention strategies.
AI may therefore change retail investigations less by eliminating the
investigator and more by shifting where investigators provide the
greatest value. The technology can surface information quickly, but
deciding what matters — and what happens next — remains a human
responsibility.
AI Gets Ahead of Workplace Risk
How AI is Reshaping Workplace Safety and Risk Management
Rome wasn’t built in a day. Neither
is a proactive safety program. But building a world-class safety program
is possible with ongoing work and artificial intelligence to intervene
sooner.
Workplace safety began as a reactive discipline. An incident
occurs. Teams investigate, assign corrective actions and update their
processes. The cycle repeats. Too often, so do the incidents.
The case for proactive workplace safety is both a human and a financial
one. In June 2026, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported 2.5
million nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses in 2024. Workplace
accidents cost U.S. employers nearly $59 billion annually, according to
Liberty Mutual.
Most organizations already have the data they need to stay ahead of
safety risks. The problem is it's scattered across systems, teams
and locations, which makes it difficult to connect the dots in time to
prevent the next incident.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing that. AI can
continuously analyze data across systems, formats and locations. What’s
more, the technology can help make sense of the data, surface risk
patterns that would be invisible to humans, predict potential incidents
and guide teams to the right remediation actions.
AI delivers these insights and recommendations in everyday workflows
so teams can intervene before an incident actually occurs. Safety
teams that have spent years managing risk after-the-fact now have a way
to get ahead of it.
Identifying and interpreting early-warning signals rather than just
after-the-fact incident counts is what separates proactive safety
programs from reactive ones. Near-miss reporting rates, hazard
observations, inspection completion and how quickly corrective actions
get resolved are better predictors of whether something is likely to go
wrong in the future than historical injury tallies.
These warning signs can only work if they're captured consistently and
reviewed fast enough to act on, which is where manual processes
struggle. AI is what makes that possible at scale.

More Chief AI Officers Coming to
Retail?
As Target Creates a Chief AI Officer Role, Will This Become a Retail
Mainstay?
In an August 11 press release, Target announced two personnel changes:
Purvi Shah would be taking on the position of SVP of UX, and Chandhu
Nair would be stepping into the newly created role of chief AI
officer.
“What excites me most is the opportunity to make AI real for the people
who experience Target every day. The most meaningful AI stories won’t be
about what happens in a lab. They’ll be about what happens on the front
line — how we make shopping easier for a guest, give a team member a
better tool, make a business decision with more confidence or bring a
new idea to market faster,” Nair said.
As Neelakandan highlighted, Target’s certainly far from alone in
pushing for even greater AI integration — Walmart has famously adopted a
slew of AI tools and agents, while Gap, Best Buy, and other brands and
retailers follow suit. In Walmart’s case, outgoing CEO Doug McMillon
specifically told CNBC that he was stepping down and passing the
leadership torch to a “faster” individual (in this case, now-CEO John
Furner) who was better able to harness AI to improve the speed of the
mega-retailer’s business.
Retailers are paying large salaries to AI talents as well, with
Walmart’s AI boss actually out-earning then-CEO McMillon in 2025.
Whereas McMillon notched a total compensation package estimated at
approximately $29.2 million for the year, the highest-paid executive
disclosed by Walmart was actually EVP of AI acceleration, product and
design Daniel Danker, who joined that year for a total compensation
package of an estimated $44.1 million. Walmart created the AI leadership
role last year, providing earlier evidence of a trend.

Siffron's Shogun Tag™ Duo
Small Tag. Big Protection.
 The
Shogun Tag™ Duo
is a versatile retail security solution that simplifies product application
while delivering powerful protection. Offering two easy application
methods—removable adhesive or reusable elastic banding—the Shogun Tag™ Duo makes
it simple to secure merchandise across multiple surfaces and packaging types.
This streamlined setup reduces installation time for associates while ensuring
consistent, reliable theft protection.
Built with all the standard Shogun Tag™ functions, the Duo also adds the
flexibility of reusable banding, allowing tags to be reapplied as often as
needed. Clear banding can be used for a discreet application that won’t distract
from branding or product presentation, while integrated slots on the device
allow banding to be applied cleanly and securely.
For maximum security, the Shogun Tag™ Duo features 3-alarm protection: an alarm
sounds if the tag is tampered with or removed, if merchandise passes through an
EAS gate, and when the tag interacts with AM or RF antennas. This triple-layered
defense ensures merchandise is safeguarded at every point of contact, deterring
theft while maintaining a shopper-friendly experience.
Compact yet powerful, the Shogun Tag™ Duo measures just 1.26” W x 1.57” L x .38”
H, making it smaller than many competing solutions and ideal for planogram
efficiency. Cost-effective, reusable, and adaptable across multiple product
categories, the Shogun Tag™ Duo is the smart choice for retailers seeking a
low-cost, high-performance theft-prevention system.

AI Tech Needs More Guardrails?
Hackers abuse AI models to find new entry paths
Network defenders are racing to
secure their IT systems before criminal and state-actors circumvent
existing guardrails.
Criminal and state-aligned threat groups are testing frontier and
open-weight AI models to develop new methods of attacking corporate
IT networks.
Attackers are using AI for a range of activities, enabling them to
develop new exploits, accelerate attack speeds and maintain persistence
through the abuse of legitimate tools, researchers from Accenture and
Google Cloud said during a media presentation at the Black Hat USA
conference in Las Vegas.
Developers have increasingly placed guardrails on certain frontier AI
models, in order to limit their misuse. In response, threat groups
are turning to open-weight models to circumvent those controls and
augment their capabilities to conduct malicious activities.
For a threat actor carrying out a complex attack, there is an
interest in being able to operate in the relative anonymity of model
with less oversight.
GTIG researchers in May warned that threat actors were using AI to
leverage a working zero-day exploit. Threat actors have also
targeted AI environments to target software supply chains for larger
scale campaigns.
The surge in AI-assisted hacks come at a time when frontier AI
companies place security guardrails around the technology, while
avoiding additional regulatory scrutiny.
Just last month, an alarming security breach took place when an
autonomous agent at OpenAI broke containment and breached the Hugging
Face production environment. AI security critics saw the incident as
confirmation that AI developers needed more regulatory guardrails
around the technology.

DDoS Attacks Surging
DDoS attacks hit record scale as 1 Tbps+ campaigns become more common
DDoS attacks grew in scale during the first half of 2026, bringing
larger traffic floods, shorter attack durations, and increasingly
automated campaigns. Cloudflare’s H1 2026 DDoS Threat Report shows
threat actors relying on multi-vector techniques and large-scale
network-layer attacks to disrupt online services across multiple
industries.
Network-layer attacks remained a primary driver of activity as
hyper-volumetric campaigns capable of generating traffic measured in
terabits per second became more common. Cloudflare reported a
significant increase in attacks exceeding 1 Tbps, showing the
growing prevalence of extremely high-bandwidth campaigns.
“April 2026 was a peak month for DDoS activity and volume,
hitting a high of 6.46 trillion requests and 165 petabytes (PB)
respectively,” the company said.
Threat actors combined network- and application-layer attacks within the
same campaign, shifting attack vectors throughout an incident to
increase pressure on defensive systems. By targeting multiple layers
simultaneously, attackers can complicate mitigation efforts and increase
the likelihood of service disruptions.
Attackers continued to launch short-duration, high-intensity
campaigns. Many attacks lasted less than one minute, leaving
security teams with little opportunity to respond manually before
mitigation was required and demonstrating the value of continuous
monitoring and automated defenses.
helpnetsecurity.com
Firewall Flaw Under Attack
Cisco says software vulnerability could let hackers crash firewalls
Threat actors have already begun
exploiting the flaw, according to the U.S. government.
Hackers could exploit a vulnerability in Cisco firewalls’
software to crash the devices, the networking giant is warning
customers.
The flaw, tracked as CVE-2026-20349, “could allow an unauthenticated,
remote attacker to cause the device to reload unexpectedly, resulting in
a denial of service (DoS) condition,” Cisco said in a Tuesday
advisory.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) immediately
added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog,
indicating that hackers have quickly begun to take advantage of the
flaw to target Cisco networking devices.
Cisco devices have faced a wide range of cyberattacks in recent years,
with the ASA and FTD operating systems producing repeated
vulnerabilities.

Last-Mile Delivery Rules Face Pushback
in NYC
NYC mayor backs measure that could transform last-mile delivery
operations in city
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has announced his support of a
measure that could bring a big change to how goods are delivered to
consumers across the city's five boroughs.
The Delivery Protection Act,
currently pending before the New York City Council, would create a
licensing system for certain last-mile warehouses and distribution
facilities while establishing new safety, training and labor standards.
It would also require the company operating the facility, such as
Amazon, to hire their own delivery workers rather than using the
sub-contractors that many rely on.
“As last-mile delivery centers have exploded across New York, so too
have traffic accidents and worker injuries,” said Mayor Mamdani. “The
Delivery Protection Act is commonsense regulation that protects delivery
workers, safeguards the communities where these facilities operate and
ensures that the corporations benefiting from workers’ labor are
responsible for the consequences of their business practices.”
Since 2017, at least 18 large last-mile facilities have opened across
New York City, including 11 since 2020, according to a statement on
nyc.gov.
The bill’s opponents argue it would drive up the costs of delivery to
consumers and slow the arrival of packages. A study commissioned by
an Amazon-funded group found that the regulations could increase the
cost of delivery by as much as $5.20 per package, or $664 annually per
household. Critics of the bill also say it could companies with massive
delivery operations to move their distribution centers out of New York
City.
Kelly Nantel, a spokesperson for Amazon, told Business Insider that the
legislation could jeopardize the company's ability to hire local
workers.
"As written, this legislation would directly undermine that
commitment — threatening the small businesses that deliver to customers,
putting the jobs of more than 5,000 of their employees at risk and
forcing us to consider relocating delivery operations outside of the
city," she said in the report.
In May, the Mamdani administration announced that the city had
recovered more than $9 million from Amazon after the company’s delivery
vehicles accrued fines due to idling violations.
