Auditing: An Essential Tool For Any Effective LP Program
By Mike Keenan, CPP, CFI, LPC,
Managing Director, Retail Loss Prevention, TAL Global Corporation
By monitoring execution and correcting identified deficiencies throughout the
year, you can improve compliance, control loss, and keep both employees and
customers safe.
Early in my career, I heard a quote that I found to be consistently accurate. "A
well-run facility equates to low shortage." But how do you ensure that a
facility is running well? By "inspecting what you expect" with an effective LP
audit program. An LP audit program enables you to monitor store, DC, and
fulfillment center compliance to loss control policies and procedures on a
periodic basis.
Two Keys to a Successful LP Audit Program
The two keys to a successful LP audit program; the first key is objectivity. The
audits must give an accurate picture of what is actually happening in a
facility. If they don't, they have limited value. In order to correct issues,
you must know what they are. Auditors must be able to objectively report their
findings. Of course, that makes sense, but it doesn't always happen. Here's why.
If the person who conducts the audits reports directly to a person in company
leadership who is responsible for running the facility, can they truly audit
objectively? Will the LP auditor worry about jeopardizing their relationship
with their boss? Ideally, your LP auditors should report independently from the
people who run the facilities they are auditing. However, if that is not the
case, make sure that company leaders understand why LP auditors must be
objective. The goal is to improve results not find fault with individuals unless
those individuals are not performing as expected. And if they are not performing
as required, leadership will want to know that.
The second key is accountability. If a facility fails an audit, what are the
consequences? Are the consequences serious enough to get the attention of the
person being audited? For example, if a facility fails an audit, does it result
in disciplinary action? Does it impact their performance evaluation or bonus? If
the consequences aren't meaningful, facility leadership will not focus the
appropriate attention on taking the actions necessary to pass the audits. You
must elicit Senior Leadership's support in developing the appropriate
consequences so that those being audited know that passing audits is a company
priority.

Investigating Claims of a Hostile Work Environment
By Brett L. Ward, CFI, Divisional Vice President - Business Development & Client
Relations, Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates
In today's ever-changing world of what's considered a "Hostile Work Environment"
HR/ER Professionals face a daily challenge on how to handle investigative
interviews professionally and with sensitivity. People are increasingly aware of
the severity of the problem, however how it's interpreted doesn't always
coincide the definition accepted within an organization.
When an employee's perception of their work environment is considered hostile,
it initiates an investigation by HR/ER to determine the reality of the claim and
how to identify the truth. If done incorrectly, the interviewer puts themselves
and their organization at great risk. Prior to conducting your next
investigation into a hostile work environment claim, consider the following:
Is there a way to IDENTIFY THE TRUTH without destroying morale or creating
unnecessary litigation?
Are team members properly trained with a specific STRATEGY in place that is
considered morally and ethically appropriate?
Is there a CONSISTENT approach and established PRACTICE on how to conduct
interviews which take into consideration different methods when interviewing
victims, potential witnesses and the accused?
Are you CONFIDENT the admissions obtained by your investigators during the
interview process are factually accurate, voluntary and credible?
If you need answers to the questions above, take advantage of the available
tools and training resources offered by
Wicklander-Zulawski (WZ) to create a
reliable and effective plan for the professional investigators within your
organization.

Trump Orders Post Office Review After Attacks on Amazon
President Donald Trump ordered the creation of a task force to review business
practices at the United States Postal Service, a move that could affect one of
the president's favorite corporate targets: Amazon.com Inc. The order calls for
an examination of the Postal Service's pricing, policies and workforce costs.
In a series of Twitter messages, Trump has accused Amazon of draining the Postal
Service of money it can't afford to lose. Trump's sustained attacks on one of
the world's largest companies have hurt Amazon's stock price and raised
questions about government interference in the private sector.

Toy Maker Plans Toys 'R' Us Bid After Longshot Crowdfunding Campaign
Billionaire offers $675M to buy chain's U.S. stores and $215M for Canadian
stores
A billionaire toy maker said Friday that he had submitted a bid for Toys "R" Us,
even after his public
crowdfunding
campaign failed to gain much traction.
Isaac Larian, founder of Bratz maker MGA Entertainment, said he has bid $675
million to buy the U.S. stores of Toys "R" Us as well as $215 million to buy the
Canadian stores. Toys "R" Us is in the midst of winding down its U.S. business
while bankruptcy proceedings are ongoing.
In an interview Friday, Mr. Larian dismissed suggestions that the bid was a
publicity stunt and said that Bank of America Corp. and UBS Group AG are lining
up financing for his bid. "I'm making a cash deposit today and have a letter
from my banks that I have the funds to do this," Mr. Larian said.
It is unclear if other parties are also interested in the assets. Separately,
the toy retailer's bankruptcy attorney said in court Wednesday that the company
had received multiple bids of more than $1 billion for a majority stake in its
Asian business.
Mr. Larian's bid faces hurdles, including whether other toy companies will want
to work directly with a retailer controlled by a competitor, in the notoriously
secretive and competitive toy industry. Mr. Larian said Friday that he won't be
involved in day-to-day operations at Toys "R" Us if the bid succeeds.

In Spite of Waves of Store Closures, Retail Vacancy Hasn't Spiked in First
Quarter
Retail vacancy levels stayed relatively flat for the first quarter of the year,
according to preliminary data from real estate research firm Reis. Industry
experts say that despite accounts of retail bankruptcies and store closures, the
sector is poised to stay the course.
For neighborhood and community shopping centers, the vacancy rate averaged 10.0
percent, the same as the quarter before. Meanwhile, the vacancy rate for
regional malls rose 10 basis points from the fourth quarter to 8.4 percent.
This rate has remained relatively unchanged for several quarters, signaling that
2018 is not likely to see a major disruption to retail occupancies, says
Barbara Byrne Denham, a senior economist at Reis. Denham points out the
particularly rough start the retail sector saw in 2017. "It can't get that much
worse," she says.

East Cleveland, OH: Residents have concerns about
the future of Dollar General store damaged by fire 10 weeks ago
The
store was gutted by a fire on Jan. 28, and residents are wondering if the
burned-out store has created a potential safety hazard, or if the store will
ever reopen. The privacy fence placed around the gutted store had been breached,
and none of the major openings of the store were boarded-up.
Black on Black
Crime Inc. President, Al Porter, agreed the unsecured store is a safety concern,
especially with dozens of school children walking by the store daily.
Dollar
General headquarters issued the following statement: "Customer and community
safety are priorities at Dollar General. We are actively with our landlord
partners to properly secure the East Cleveland location as we continue to
evaluate the store's future." Dollar General would not confirm if the store
would be re-opened in follow-up emails to the company.

Hackers Sold Saks Data On Dark Web, Shoppers Say
Saks Inc. was hit with a proposed class action on Wednesday accusing the company
of leaving customers' credit and debit card information vulnerable to hackers
who then sold it on the dark web, according to a suit in Tennessee federal
court.
Saks Fifth Avenue, Saks Off Fifth and sister store Lord & Taylor had disclosed
on April 1 that shoppers' personal information may have been compromised in a
recent breach, but the consumers in Wednesday's suit said it was worse than just
a security problem found in the stores' software.
That's because several days before the breach was announced, a hacking
syndicate called JokerStash said it was releasing more than five million stolen
credit and debit cards on the dark web, according to the suit. Saks' failure
to protect the customers' information means that cybercriminals will keep buying
and using it again, the consumers said.

Most data breaches occur in North America and Retail, report finds
The new Trustwave report has revealed that most data breaches occur in North
America and retail, among other key findings. The '2018
Trustwave Security Report' says that despite exhibiting a slight decline
from 2016, North America led the pack in data breaches with 43%, followed by
Asia Pacific on 30%, Europe, Middle East and Africa on 23%, and Latin America on
4%. The retail sector suffered the most breach incidences at 16.7%
followed by the finance and insurance industry at 13.1% and hospitality at
11.9%.
Of great concern is a marked increase at 9.5% in compromises targeting
businesses that provide IT services including web-hosting providers, POS
integrators and help-desk providers. Down from 2016, payment card data at 40%
still reigns supreme in terms of data types targeted in a breach. The figure is
split between magnetic stripe data at 22% and card-not-present (CNP) at 18%.

Businesses Calculate Cost of EU's GDPR as May 25 Deadline Looms
Businesses are under fire to achieve General Data Protection Regulation
compliance ahead of the May 25 deadline, only 45 days away. As they do, new
research highlights the steps they're taking to adhere to new regulations, how
much work they have left, and what this wave of changes is costing them.
![](http://www.d-ddaily.com/banners/170327-box-ad.jpg)
It's an expensive process. Ten percent of Netsparker's respondents say they will
spend more than $1 million to become GDPR compliant. Nearly 24% will spend
between $100,000 and $1 million, 35.8% will spend from $50,000 to $100,000, and
20% will spend between $10,000 and $50,000.
Part of the cost stems from hiring GDPR professionals. About 63% of respondents
have a dedicated team addressing compliance issues; however, 28% had to hire a
third-party firm or service to help out. For many, GDPR has prompted
reorganizations and new employees.

Study: 48% of shoppers ready for voice recognition security
About 48% of 3,000 U.S. consumers surveyed in an online Harris Poll from voice
security company Pindrop said they would be willing to use voice recognition as
a method of personal verification, and 81% said they could envision potential
benefits of using voice for security, according to a Pindrop press release.
Many survey participants said they often access their accounts with retailers
and other types of companies by phone, but are sometimes frustrated by the
numerous questions they need to answer to verify their identities, an issue
which the survey findings suggest voice recognition might help solve.
However, 94% of those surveyed also expressed concerns about potential drawbacks
to using voice for personal verification, including the possibility that it
wouldn't always work, or might not work with background noise, as well as
concerns about a person's voice being cloned and used for a security breach.

7th Circ. Tosses Banks' Suit Over 2012 Schnuck Data Breach
The Seventh Circuit on Thursday declined to revive a putative class action
against Schnuck Markets Inc. by a group of banks that issued debit and credit
cards affected by the company's 2012 data breach, saying the issue was a
contractual and not a tort matter. The panel rejected the banks' arguments that
the grocery chain was liable to them under common law and state consumer laws
for the data breach they said forced them to cancel and reissue 2.4 million
cards, saying the matter was fully covered by the various contracts between the
company, the card payment networks and the banks, even if the banks were not
satisfied with the indemnification they received.

Opinion: Without the right data, CNP fraud
protection could be out of reach
For ecommerce players, preventing card-not-present (CNP) fraud is an ongoing
challenge. But many of these businesses are leaving their most valuable
fraud-fighting tools untouched. According to the
2017 True Cost of Fraud Study by Lexis Nexis, fewer than half of small
ecommerce businesses track their fraud costs by transaction type. Even fewer
track their fraud costs by channel. But that data can give businesses the
real-time, dynamic information they need to fight fraud and keep pace with rapid
changes in the way fraudsters operate.
The rising tide of CNP fraud affects the entire ecommerce industry, and certain
verticals are more frequent fraudster targets. But each business has a unique
risk profile based on its vertical, niche, markets, specific products, payment
security practices, and other factors. The only way to build a truly effective
fraud prevention system is to customize it-and the only way to do that is by
thoroughly analyzing your sales and fraud data, particularly by channel and by
transaction type.
Data ecommerce sellers can track for fraud prevention
Small ecommerce firms-those with annual revenues less than $10 million-lag far
behind larger players in tracking fraud data. This raises their CNP fraud risk
because, as the True Cost of Fraud authors noted, fraudsters will go where they
can succeed. If larger ecommerce sellers are fending them off, they'll move on
to smaller sellers who aren't focused on their fraud metrics. Here's a brief
rundown of some of the numbers mentioned in the Lexis Nexis report that
ecommerce merchants of all sizes should monitor and analyze.
● Prevented and successful fraud by transaction type. Only 39% of small
ecommerce companies track instances of prevented fraud, while 52% of larger
companies do. This data allows sellers to see which payment types lend
themselves best to stopping fraud. Fewer ecommerce companies of all sizes track
completed fraud by payment type, even though this information can identify the
payment methods that entail the most risk.
● Prevented and successful fraud by channel. A mere 17% of small
ecommerce companies track prevented fraud by channel, and just 26% track
completed fraud by channel. Compare that to larger ecommerce businesses.
Forty-two percent of them monitor prevented fraud by channel, and 76% track
completed fraud by channel. This information matters because different channels
carry different fraud risks and require different practices.

Cybercriminals are increasingly targeting online
retailers. Here's how to protect yourself
Cybersecurity can be a cat-and-mouse game. Fix one weakness, and the criminals
find another target.
The theft of payment information collected at checkout stands, once a more
common threat, is declining. The use of chip-enabled credit cards as well as
lessons learned from major consumer data breaches - like one at Target in 2013
that affected more than 41 million people - have encouraged retailers to step up
their data defences.
"That went a long way toward securing those point-of-sale systems and making
them less of a juicy target for criminals," said Karl Sigler, threat
intelligence manager at SpiderLabs, the research team at Chicago-based
cybersecurity firm Trustwave. But in response, criminals are targeting payment
information consumers provide when they shop online.
Data breaches affecting checkout systems in stores comprised 20% of the
incidents Trustwave investigated in 2017, down from 31% the year before,
according to the firm's Global Security Report, released Thursday. E-commerce
incidents, on the other hand, were 30% of cases, up from 26% in 2016.
What's so insecure about online shopping? Sigler said e-commerce sites are
getting more complex - with connections to vendors and outside credit card
processors - and each added complexity is an added vulnerability.

Yakima, WA: Final arguments in 2016 Moneytree
store Double Murder
"The defendant here brutally murdered these two young women in cold blood. He's
guilty of murder in the first degree," prosecutor Brian Aaron said in his
closing argument in Yakima County Superior Court. "The defendant admitted to
this; the defendant admitted that he shot (the women). That is the uncontested
evidence; those are the facts." Defense attorneys concede that their client,
Manuel Enrique Verduzco Jr., killed Karina Morales-Rodriguez, 27, and Marta
Martinez, 30, but argue he can't be convicted because he was experiencing a
schizophrenic episode at the time. Defense attorney Peter Mazzone said Verduzco,
28, has struggled with schizophrenia since he was a teenager and that voices in
his head told him to kill.
