CONTROLTEK Launches New EAS System With Five Year Warranty
 CONTROLTEK, an emerging leader in retail product protection, launched its first
AM EAS system at this week's RILA conference in Orlando. The new system, named
SAM1AM, boasts high-quality construction, network connectivity, remote tuning
and 6' entrance coverage.
"There is a need in the retail industry for a high-end AM system that doesn't
come with a high-end price and long installation delays," said Tom Meehan, CONTROLTEK's Chief Strategy Officer.
"The SAM1AM system we just launched is made in Europe of high-quality materials
used in the automotive industry; it performs equal to or better than any AM
system currently available; and offers multiple enhancement options, including
people counting and analytics. Best of all, it is available right now, and
installations can be scheduled on a short notice."
According to Meehan, SAM1AM comes with a five-year warranty. The system easily
blends into most retail environments, thanks to its clear acrylic panels and
elegant design.

M&S Head of LP advises RFID is 'no miracle cure'
Richard Jenkins, head of loss prevention and RFID at Marks & Spencer, has
warned that retailers should not view RFID as a "miracle cure".
Jenkins is an advocate of RFID technology but believes some implement it without
a clear idea of the problem they are trying to solve.
"RFID has been something of a niche and novelty previously in retail, but now
there is a competitive disadvantage in not doing it," said Jenkins at RBTE.
"This is not a miracle cure for all the ills and challenges a retailer faces in
the modern world.
"The question I ask anyone is what is the problem they are trying to solve, and
often there is not one and they are just wanting to use it because they think it
is sexier than using a barcode."
Jenkins says the fundamental reason for RFID is making sure the right product is
in the right store when it needs to be, which helps prevent markdowns and boosts
the bottom line.

Black men arrested at Philadelphia Starbucks reach agreements
City officials promise to set up $200K program
Two African-American men whose arrest at a Philadelphia Starbucks last month
sparked protests over racial bias have reached agreements with the coffee
store chain and the city, and have pledged to support a $200,000 effort to
encourage young entrepreneurs.
The details of the financial settlement that Donte Robinson and Rashon Nelson
reached this week with Starbucks are confidential, the company said. The parties
agreed to work to "develop specific actions and opportunities."
The two men will give input to former US Attorney Eric Holder, who is working
with Starbucks on its diversity efforts. Robinson and Nelson also reached a
settlement with the city for $1 each, said city spokesman Mike Dunn.
The men will work with the city and a nonprofit organization to develop
criteria, review applications and award the $200,000 grant, Dunn said. The grant
will establish "a pilot curriculum for public high school students to develop
the skills necessary to pursue their dream of being entrepreneurs," according to
Dunn.

C-Level Shakeup at Nike Demonstrates the Power of Surveys
When Nike management refused to acknowledge (never mind try to fix) the
company's misogynist culture, female executives used something very simple, yet
surprisingly effective to turn things around: a survey. The survey, distributed
informally among Nike's female employees, asked respondents whether they had
 experienced sexual harassment or bias while at the company.
In March, they delivered the completed surveys to Nike CEO Mark Parker.
Within a few weeks, six high-level male executives announced they were leaving
the company, including Trevor Edwards president of the Nike brand, who had
been widely expected to take over as CEO of the company within two years. he
dismissals came about after a review by an outside firm, according to some
reports. Either way, they proveproof of how powerful this humble tool that's
available to everyone can be if you use it right.
A survey is data.
An individual complaint is easy enough to set aside, but a survey, especially
one with more than a few respondents, is a data point. We live in a world that
has new respect for data, especially since so many successful companies owe
their success to their ability to quickly gather data and then use that data to
make better decisions. When you present data that proves harassment is a
problem, that's pretty hard to ignore.
Data has another appealing quality in that anything that can be measured once
can be measured again later. That holds out the hope that if Nike works to solve
its problems, a follow-up survey might show some improvement. That can create at
least some incentive to improve things.

2,959 Store Closures and Counting in 2018
That's the number of store closures announced so far this year. The growth of
shopping options - either new brands popping up or just the general shift to
online shopping - has contributed to a retail malaise that hasn't been kind to
the bricks-and-mortar channel. While many retailers plan to open new stores,
that number continues to be overshadowed by the rate of store closures.
In 2017, nearly 7,000 store closures were announced, and slightly over 5,000
doors actually shuttered. The balance was slated for closure this year. Many
closures were due to store realignment initiatives; others were due to
bankruptcies, some of which resulted in liquidations. Examples of the latter
include Sports Authority, Eastern Mountain Outfitters and Hhgregg.
While the 2,959 stores scheduled to close this year include some revealed in
2017, the majority are new.

Amazon Threatens Seattle Over New Tax That Would Help the Homeless
Amazon has suspended part of its expansion plans in Seattle, pending the outcome
of a City Council vote on a new tax on large employers that would fund programs
aimed at providing affordable housing and helping the homeless.
The company, which already employs more than 40,000 people in Seattle, has been
planning a new 17-storey office tower that would house at least 7,000 new
workers. But now the project is on hold, and Amazon is even threatening to
sublease out all the space it's leased in another building that's already under
construction.

Brinks Truck Makes It Rain Over
Indianapolis Highway
$600,000 Flies Out The Back Door
 Indiana State Police are asking anyone who found loose money on I-70 Wednesday
money to return it.
A chaotic scene unfolded around 9 a.m. on westbound I-70, near Holt Road, when
the back security door on a Brinks truck came open.
Troopers say people were jumping over fences from the adjacent neighborhood to
stuff their pockets with money.
"Bags of money were falling out of the back onto the interstate," said ISP
Corporal Brock McCooe. "Sort of something out of a movie scene, where you have
bills, loose bills flying all over the interstate, vehicles stopping, people
getting out of their cars."
Troopers at the scene initially said up to $600,000 had flown across the
interstate, but police later said the exact amount was not known.
The Brinks truck driver told state police that another driver waved at him and
pointed to the back of his truck, and that's when he realized the door was not
secure and had opened.
It's not known whether the incident was the result of mechanical failure, or
human error, police said.

RILA Conference: Was it Worth Attending?
 By
David George
Managing Partner - Calibration Group, LLC
The Retail Industry Leaders Association (RILA) provides the first of several
conferences each year dedicated to bringing us all together to share ideas that
consistently prove their value in helping to improve the protection of
employees, customers, and retail brands, as well as enhance company profits.
The retail Loss Prevention/Asset Protection (LP/AP) industry's conference season
was officially kicked off this week by RILA as industry leaders and
practitioners converged on the city of Orlando to network and collaborate with
their peers, and to learn about new solutions designed to help retailers reduce
inventory shortage and improve customer and employee safety.
Was it worth attending? Should LP/AP professionals be spending their valuable
time and resources traveling not just to the RILA conference, but to any of our
industry-specific conferences?
There's only one way to find the answers to these questions. As I walked through
the convention center at the beautiful Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center,
I quickly became engaged in conversations with current and former colleagues
entrenched in the age-old battle of profit & people protection. From these
conversations, I will list the most interesting responses I received when asking
attendees the questions listed above:
•
"The common answer is
probably having the ability to see new technology. But for me, attending
conferences is the best way to ask colleagues from all retail disciplines how
they are solving the same issues I have at my organization. Nothing is more
beneficial than that. I find this to be the best way to learn from their
mistakes, and for them to learn from mine." - Director of Asset Protection,
grocery industry.

All 4 major U.S. credit cards ditch signatures, with eye on biometrics
As of last month, four of the largest credit card networks in the United States
no longer require signatures to complete transactions -- a move driven by
evolving security and technology.
American Express, Discover and Mastercard gave merchants the option to stop
requesting handwritten authentication for credit and debit card transactions
April 13, while Visa implemented the policy the following day.
While each credit card company eliminated the signature, individual retailers
also have the choice to keep collecting signatures or stop. Several major retail
chains, including Walmart, have sought to end the longtime practice because
those sales must be processed in a way that takes more time and costs twice as
much as transactions that use a PIN.

Data Breaches Drive Consumer Stress over Cybersecurity
Kaspersky Lab has revealed a new survey report, which shows that 81 percent of
Americans and 72 percent of Canadians admit to feeling stressed by the news of
data breaches. The Kaspersky Lab report, "The
State of Cyber-Stress," found that consumers' lack of awareness of how to
protect themselves from online threats is leading to increased stress levels
around technology usage and cybersecurity as a whole.
While these levels of cyber-stress may seem excessive to some, the research
revealed that consumers' fears about becoming the next victim of a cyberattack
are justified. Kaspersky Lab found that 46 percent of survey respondents have
experienced at least one cybersecurity issue in the last five years.
Furthermore, a small percentage of people - 14 percent of Americans and six
percent of Canadians - admitted to facing four or more cybersecurity issues in
the last five years.

Survey Shows Sensitive Data Goes Astray in Email
 Nearly half (45%) of employees have accidentally included banking information in
email sent to an unintended recipient outside the organization, a new study
found.
The Clearswift survey of 600 senior business decision makers and 1,200 employees
across the UK, US, Germany, and Australia, shows that more than a quarter of
users have been on the receiving end of mis-addressed sensitive information,
indicating that the flow of poorly managed private information goes in both
directions.
Upon receiving unintended information, 31% of employees say that they would read
the email, with 12% admitting they would scroll through to read the entire email
chain. Once read, only 27% would delete the email from their inboxes.

Are Your Employees Posting Passwords Online?
Storing passwords in plaintext online is never a good idea, but it's remarkable
how many companies have employees who are doing just that using online
collaboration tools like Trello.com. Last week, KrebsOnSecurity notified a host
of companies that employees were using Trello to share passwords for sensitive
internal resources. Among those put at risk by such activity included an
insurance firm, a state government agency and ride-hailing service Uber.
By default, Trello boards for both enterprise and personal use are set to either
private (requires a password to view the content) or team-visible only (approved
members of the collaboration team can view).
But that doesn't stop individual Trello users from manually sharing personal
boards that include proprietary employer data, information that may be indexed
by search engines and available to anyone with a Web browser. And unfortunately
for organizations, far too many employees are posting sensitive internal
passwords and other resources on their own personal Trello boards that are left
open and exposed online.

Could A Universal 'Buy Button' Make Online Shopping Easier?
'Online payments are the wild west'
In the physical world, card transactions flow through point-of-sale (POS)
terminals certified by the payment networks. These terminals are bound by
industry standards and manufactured by a relatively small number of hardware
companies, creating a near-universal checkout experience from merchant to
merchant. This level of consistency and standardization is not seen in
digital commerce, where approaches to checkout are varied and transactions
filter through a highly fragmented and complex web of payments and technology
providers. While in-store payments have uniformity, online payments are the wild
west.
The absence of checkout homogeneity in digital commerce has created, among other
things, an inconsistent customer experience, low conversion rates and a
disjointed approach to security. This was reluctantly tolerated for decades, but
burgeoning digital commerce growth is creating an impetus for change; 451
Research's Global Unified Commerce Forecast projects online retail sales to
expand from $2.8 trillion this year to $5.8 trillion by 2022.
With the recent backing of EMVCo's Secure Remote Commerce (SRC) framework, Visa
and Mastercard have made an important first step toward bringing uniformity to
digital commerce transactions. In their support of the SRC approach, both
networks have surfaced the idea of a universal 'buy button' as a way to
deliver a common, secure checkout experience across all merchants selling
online. Their idea is that by implementing a familiar and ubiquitous checkout
option, security and authentication approaches can be standardized and consumers
will no longer be confronted by laborious and inconsistent payment processes.

The enormous influence of online reviews
How important are online reviews?
How important are online reviews?
For small businesses in particular, they can mean the difference between failure
and success. Any small business owner will tell you that social review sites
such as Yelp, TripAdvisor, and Angie's List can be invaluable for attracting new
customers. In a 2017 survey, 97 percent of consumers said they looked at online
sites for information on local businesses, according to consulting firm
BrightLocal, and 85 percent said they trust online reviews as much as
personal recommendations. Because positive reviews have such a big impact on
consumers' decisions, they can help smaller shops compete with their much bigger
rivals, despite vastly different advertising and marketing budgets.
Why are reviews so influential?
Reviews "level the playing field between chains and independent businesses,"
said Brett Hollenbeck, an assistant professor at the UCLA Anderson School of
Management. A recent survey found that 22 percent of respondents would not
spend money on a business after reading a single negative review. After
three bad reviews, the number jumps to 59 percent.

Gaithersburg, MD: Woman steals $52,615 in designer merchandise from Nordstrom
and Nordstrom Rack stores
 A
Loss Prevention officer is being credited with stymieing an alleged professional
shoplifter, with security camera footage of the incident to boot. In mid-April,
Natalia Shchetinkina, 47, entered the Nordstrom Rack in Gaithersburg. The loss
prevention officer observed Shchetinkina allegedly swap out price tags on an
Alexander McQueen dress. Shchetinkina proceeded to purchase the $640 article of
clothing for a bargain price of $13.49, thanks to the tag trade.
As Shchetinkina exited the discount fashion retailer, designer dress in hand,
the loss prevention officer confronted her and called the Gaithersburg Police
Department. Upon further investigation, Nordstrom Rack determined the brand's
mainline Nordstrom store at Tysons Corner had been monitoring Shchetinkina for a
couple of years. Between April 2016 and January 2017 alone, police say
Shchetinkina returned 130 items at the Tysons location without proof of
purchase. However, Nordstrom, which is known for exemplary customer service,
issued credit card refunds and/or gift cards for all 130 items, totaling
$52,615.74 in losses.

Fresco, TX: Arrested Plano Student Was Inspired by Islamic State to Carry Out
Attack at Stonebriar Mall
 A
17-year-old North Texas student is accused of criminal solicitation of capital
murder and making a terroristic threat in an Islamic State-inspired plot to
carry out a mass shooting at suburban Dallas mall, officials said. The teen,
Matin Azizi-Yarand, who lives with his parents in Plano, was arrested Tuesday at
Plano West Senior High School and is now being held at the Collin County Jail on
$3 million bond. Under Texas law he'll be tried as an adult and faces up to life
in prison for criminal solicitation and up to 10 years in prison for making a
terroristic threat.
Officials said in an arrest affidavit Azizi-Yarand talked online with a FBI
source starting in December 2017 and told the informant how he wanted to conduct
a terrorist attack. Over the course of four months, investigators said the
suspect communicated with two informants and an undercover agent about possible
targets that included an unnamed school, a Hindu temple and then Stonebriar
Centre mall in Frisco.
