How Does CCPA Act Impact Your Company?
The California Consumer Protection Act ("CCPA") & the "Do Not Sell My Personal
Information" link
Must a business that doesn't sell California Consumer's Personal Information
(PI) comply?
 When
the CCPA was signed into law confusion abounded about how to comply with it. One
major question was whether an effected business that does not sell a consumer's
PI, as defined in Section 1798.140(o)(1)(A)-(K), needed to comply with Sections
1798.120 and 1798.135. Section 1798.120 created an opt-out right to the sale of
a consumer's PI and Section 1798.135 provides in part that, "A business that is
required to comply with Section 1798.120 shall...Provide a clear and conspicuous
link...Titled "Do Not Sale [sic.] My Personal Information" on its website's home
page. While it may seem clear initially that these sections would not apply to a
business that does not sell PI, Section 1798.140(t)(1) created confusion as to
what a sale was as the term was broadly defined and could be construed to mean a
transfer of PI between a business and a service provider or third party for
valuable consideration.
CCPA Amendments Signed; Draft Regulations Released
Officials Attempt to Clarify Complex California Law's Requirements
 Gov.
Gavin Newsom has signed into law six amendments to the California
Consumer Privacy Act as well as another bill updating the state's long-standing
data breach law to require notification of breaches that expose biometric and
passport data.
In addition, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra has released the first
set of draft
regulations to carry out
CCPA, which is slated to go into effect on Jan. 1, 2020.
CCPA will provide sweeping privacy protections for California's residents. It
includes, for example, a provision that will allow consumers to know what data
companies are collecting on them. Another section gives consumers the right to
have their personal information deleted from company databases (see:
CCPA: The Start of a New Era of Consumer Privacy Laws?).

Workers Making Lululemon Leggings Claim They Are Beaten
Lululemon, an athleisure brand whose leggings are worn by celebrities and
Instagram influencers, are sourcing clothing from a factory where Bangladeshi
female factory workers claim they are beaten and physically assaulted.
The Canadian brand recently launched a partnership with the United Nations to
reduce stress levels and promote the mental health of aid workers.
Yet young female workers at a factory in Bangladesh making clothing for the
label gave detailed accounts of how they struggled to survive on meagre wages
and faced physical violence and regular humiliation at the hands of their
managers, who called them "whores" and "sluts". The factory is owned and run by
the Youngone Corporation, which supplies Lululemon. theguardian.com
CNN's Critical Look at Target's Wages & Cut Hours
Target raised wages. But some workers say their hours were cut, leaving them
struggling
Two years ago, Target (TGT) said it would raise its minimum wage to $15 an hour
by the end of 2020. The move won praise from labor advocates and put pressure on
other companies to also move to $15.
But some store workers say the wage increases are not helping because their
hours are falling, making it difficult to keep their health insurance and in
some cases to pay their bills.
CNN Business interviewed 23 current and former Target employees in recent
months, including department managers, who say hours have been scaled back even
as Target has increased starting wages.

Silicon Valley Takes On Amazon's Cashierless 'Go' Stores
 Zippin
and Standard Cognition are two of the startups pitching their systems and apps
as nonthreatening alternatives to Amazon's cashier-free tech.
SAN FRANCISCO- Amazon.com Inc. recently opened its fourth cashierless
convenience store here, all located within a few blocks of each other. Nearby,
two startups are each demonstrating their own technology that they envision
powering cashier-free stores across America
This roughly one-square-mile stretch in the tech capital's bustling business
district is emerging as a battleground to eliminate retailing's centuries-old
checkout process and reinvent the way consumers shop.
Many startups, like San Francisco-based Zippin and Standard Cognition, are using
technology similar to Amazon Go's, with camera systems powered by computer
vision and machine-learning software that track people as they take items off
shelves. Other companies are trying to automate the shopping cart to avoid a
costly store overhaul.
The startups are pitching their technology to grocery chains, sports stadiums
and convenience stores, promising to automate the checkout process, reduce theft
and improve profit margins. Analysts expect Amazon eventually to license its
technology to retailers and other businesses, and some startups already are
positioning themselves as the smarter alternative.

Walmart's 'An eye in the sky on inventory'
Determining the shelving stock in a grocery store or other retail location can
require a worker to move products around and count everything they see. But
Walmart is working toward a future where this is no longer the case.
This patent application outlines a system that uses curved shelving that will
flatten as more inventory is placed on it. The lighter the inventory the larger
the gap left between the curved shelving and the frame. A system of lasers would
measure this gap and a computing system would use internal knowledge of what
inventory is stocked where the measurement is taken to provide an inventory
level.

Idex Biometrics report says biometric payment cards at mass market tipping point
The 13-page report "Biometric
Payment Cards: Misconceptions, Ecosystem Benefits, & Market Activities" was
produced for Idex by ABI Research, and reviews the benefits of biometrics to
consumers using payment cards, as well as payment ecosystem stakeholders and
merchants. The report sets out to address myths, such as that "biometric data
has to be stored on a database," and that a failed biometric authentication
means the transaction cannot be completed. It also runs through several other
misconceptions, and acknowledges that biometric payment cards cost more than
traditional contactless cards.

The $5B American Dream Mall Is The Next Step In The Evolution Of Retail
On October 25, after more than $5 billion of investment and two bankruptcies,
the first stage of the
American Dream mall
will open. Consumers will finally get to see what $5 billion buys.
55% is allocated to entertainment and dining, and only 45% is devoted
to retail. That allocation recognizes that what's driving consumers into
stores isn't buying things; it's the fun and exploration they can have
and what they can experience with friends.
American Dream has several entertainment features that haven't been together in
a facility before. There is a Nickelodeon-themed park, which will be in the
first part of
 the facility to open, with 25 rides and attractions, where you pay
one price for the day and you can go in and out all you want. Also opening on
October 25 is an NHL-sized ice rink that has three tiers for observation and can
hold 2,400 spectators if they're one deep and 4,800 if they're two deep.
The idea here is clear: get consumers to come for non-shopping reasons and make
money doing it. Then offer convenient shopping opportunities so that when
visitors are in the mood, it's right at hand.
American Dream expects only half its visitors to live within 50 miles of the
mall. It is expecting to be a major attraction for New York-area tourists.
American Dream is in Bergen County, New Jersey. Among other things, that means
blue laws, which mean it's illegal to operate most non-food retail on
Sunday.
Triple Five has committed to a similar-size facility in the Miami area.
It hasn't broken ground yet.

The 'retail apocalypse' is an apparel apocalypse
Most retailers in bankruptcy, or on the brink of it, sell clothes. Maybe
that's their problem.
"According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, from 1977 U.S. Households
spent 6.2% on apparel and in 2017 that declined to 3.1% spending on apparel in
U.S. Households." That is a 50% drop over four decades."
So far this year,
10 of the 16 major retail bankruptcies were filed by companies that
mostly or exclusively sell apparel and/or footwear. Things are not likely to end
there. In its latest analysis of CreditRiskMonitor data, Retail Dive found 28
retailers that could go bankrupt in the next year - and half sell apparel. In
the worse-off list three are specialty apparel retailers.

Intellicheck's Age ID is Key to Underage Vaping Epidemic
 The nation is in the grip of an underage vaping crisis. President Trump has
called for a ban on flavored vaping products. The FDA is looking at regulatory
relief and punitive actions. States and municipalities across the U.S. are
struggling to deal with the underage vaping crisis at a local level. With the
death toll on the rise and cases of vaping-related illnesses surging, answers to
how to tackle this crisis have seemed elusive.
Many states and municipalities have focused efforts on passing Tobacco 21
legislation raising the purchasing age. The thinking is that this will prevent
the sale of e-cigarettes and vaping products to young people. Others have
instituted a ban on the sale of any flavored vaping products as these seem to be
so attractive to young people. Some have instituted a complete ban on the sale
of any vaping products.
 The education community is also taking steps to try and curb underage vaping.
College campuses are declaring smoke free zones. Elementary, middle and high
schools are adding enforcement measures and some are installing vaping detectors
in bathrooms to catch young people in the act. Some schools have removed
bathroom doors and others are limiting when young people can use rest rooms
during school hours.
Enforcement agencies are stepping up sting operations aimed at assuring
retailers are not selling vaping products to minors. Retailers share their
concern. One national retailer, Walmart, has removed all vaping products from
its shelves in an effort to stop underage access.
The problem is these efforts have failed to curb underage vaping. A critical
aspect of this problem is the same issue that continues to fuel underage access
to alcohol. Fake IDs. Fake IDs are so sophisticated that even the most seasoned
enforcement officers and retailers aren't able to catch the high-tech fakes with
traditional methods. The answer? Age ID.
 Age ID authenticates IDs and verifies age information in real-time with proven
99.9 percent accuracy. The budget friendly SaaS technology solution is easy to
adopt and use and is readily deployed on mobile devices including smartphones
and tablets and can also be easily integrated with point-of-sale systems. The
cutting-edge technology solution draws on a comprehensive, proprietary database,
updated on an ongoing basis, to ensure information is timely and accurate.

Cross-border Cybercrime
 Interpol
aims to set up international cybercrime database. Interpol this week
soft-launched a secure technology platform to help authorities in the agency's
194 member countries share sensitive information about cases and training and
potentially collaborate on investigations. In the future, Interpol plans to
include a chat function and ways to share files.
The platform, which is encrypted and hosted on a secure cloud managed by
Interpol, is separate from the agency's plans to create a cybercrime database.
The international police agency wants to aggregate cybercrime data from national
authorities and share it with other investigators, who might be able to draw
connections between hacking methods or large criminal groups.

5 things security executives need to know about insider threat
Screen Pre-hires - Limit New Hires - Warning Signs - Ongoing Evaluation -
Intervene Early
According to the 2018 Deloitte-NASCIO Cybersecurity Study, CISOs' top challenges
remain "budget, talent and increasing cyber threats," and to some, insider
threat doesn't even make the list of top-ten priorities.
Considering what's at stake - and our 21st-century ability to see signs of, and
ultimately prevent, insider threat - this is a phenomenon security executives
can no longer afford to ignore. Specifically, leaders need to know these five
things about insider threat:
1. Don't underestimate the business threats that stem from within -
according to Verizon's 2019 Data Breach Investigation Report, more than one
third of breaches that took place during November 2017-October 2018 involved
internal actors.
 2.
Disengaged employees are usually grown, not hired - Companies know that with
every new hire, they naturally run the risk of making a bad hire every once in a
while. That's why many already conduct pre-hire background checks, and why some
even instate "new-hire" periods where employees aren't yet entitled to certain
benefits or granted access to confidential information.
These steps aren't enough. As time goes on, events arise in an employee's
personal life that can impact their performance and behavior in the workplace.
Stress can drive otherwise ethical employees toward contemplating putting the
company at risk for their own financial gain - i.e., stealing office supplies,
stealing intellectual property, lying on reimbursement forms, etc.
3. Disengaged employees exhibit warning signs - The good news is that
insider threats like these are often precluded by observable patterns of
behavior that usually boil down to one thing:
stress.
Gallup, stressed and disengaged employees are 37% more likely to take time off
from work, and the companies they work for are 18% less productive and 15% less
profitable. Or, in more extreme cases, stress might manifest verbally in
conversations with clients and coworkers; physically; or in an employee
concocting some sort of malicious plan.
4. Continuous evaluation enables leaders to compliantly see employee risk
indicators - Continuous evaluation solutions alert business leaders to
employees exhibiting these early warning signs. In addition to what a background
check would typically screen for - criminal activity, chiefly - continuous
evaluation solutions can be customized to also screen for other factors of
interest: workplace violence, customer service reviews, suspicious financial or
internet search activity, etc.
They may also allow for anonymous reporting, so that if individuals witness
concerning behavior firsthand, they have an opportunity to relay that
information without fear of repercussion from the individual. This ability is
especially crucial for workplace sexual assault or harassment cases.
All this must be done compliantly. That's why employee consent can be included
in the
onboarding process, and why some continuous evaluation solutions feature an
automated review process that ensures a standardized workflow for verification
and investigation by HR, Legal, Security and Compliance. And, with the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) in
mind, they also include employee privacy protections and legal guardrails to
ensure a fair and equitable process that eliminates bias and favoritism.
5. Early and ongoing discovery enables leaders to intervene before behaviors
escalate - Warning signs should never be ignored. Acting sooner rather than
later gives security executives the ability to work with other members of the
leadership team or HR to prevent an employee's problem from escalating.
Clearly, companies have a lot to lose by
overlooking insider threat, something security leaders now have the ability
to quickly identify and mitigate. Aside from being something they should do,
leveraging early and ongoing evaluation to see and prevent insider threat is
something security executives must do, for the business, its employees and the
people it serves.

Researchers may have found a way to trace serial IP hijackers
It's estimated that in 2017 alone, routing incidents such as IP hijacks affected
more than 10 percent of all the world's routing domains. What if we could
predict these incidents in advance by tracing things back to the hijackers
themselves?
That's the idea behind a new machine-learning system developed by researchers at
MIT and the University of California at San Diego (UCSD).
The nature of nearby networks
IP hijackers exploit a key shortcoming in the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP),
a routing mechanism that essentially allows different parts of the internet to
talk to each other. Through BGP, networks exchange routing information so that
data packets find their way to the correct destination.
"It's like a game of Telephone, where you know who your nearest neighbor is, but
you don't know the neighbors five or 10 nodes away," says Testart.

Forter Seventh Edition of the Fraud Attack Index has just hit the wires
Fraud Dollar Amount Increased by 12% Since 2018
Online apparel & accessories saw a 44% spike in attacks
 The
latest Fraud Attack Index highlights changes within and across the dynamic world
of digital commerce. This report examines shifting behaviors and trends in
online fraud attacks across global industries and explores the fraudulent modus
operandi (MO) or methods by which fraudsters leverage their attacks. With
over $140 billion in e-commerce transactions, this edition of the Fraud
Attack Index encapsulates the most extensive research ever conducted in this
field.
According to the report, from Q2 2018 to Q2 2019, the dollar amount in fraud
has increased by 12%, underscoring an increase in quality of attacks.
Fraud attacks on the online apparel and accessories industry also saw an
increase, spiking 44% YoY. This industry is favored by online fraudsters,
since fashion merchandise is continually in high demand, the products are
particularly easy to resell. Fraudsters are able to buy the merchandise and turn
a profit by reselling the items for near retail price to fastidious bargain
hunters.
The report also outlines how fraudsters are becoming more sophisticated in how
they execute their attacks and details fraud trends and behaviors in various
parts of the world.

The Consequence of Mobile Convenience
Mobile Holiday Shopping Will Attrack 'Record' Number of Cybercriminals
The stage is set ready for a record-setting mobile shopping holiday season with
Black Friday, Cyber Monday and the run-up to Christmas. The global
mobile-payment market is expected to
reach $10.07 trillion by 2026, according to market-research firm Reports and
Data. Accompanying that rise in mobile payments is also mobile biometrics that
is projected to be used to authenticate 2 trillion sales by 2023, according to
Juniper Research. However, the increase of mobile shopping during the
holidays has led to a record number of cybercriminals committing fraud.
As mobile shopping adoption continues this upward trend, more purchases will
take place on mobile than on desktop, making the pocket device more attractive
to attack. In fact, researchers at NuData Security found that this last August,
out of all the mobile traffic, 49% was fraudulent.
To differentiate holiday shoppers from holiday fraudsters, some major eCommerce
companies are using passive biometrics and behavioural analytics - technologies
that monitor hundreds of online identifiers like how hard a person hits the keys
on the keyboard, how they swipe from page to page or how they hold their device
- to create the profile of a legitimate customer. With these technologies,
companies detect suspicious behaviour on new accounts.

Toronto, ON: Six face 63 charges in C$7 million cargo crime spree
 Six
men face 63 charges in connection with a series of cargo crimes near
Toronto, including the hijacking of a truckload of nearly C$7 million of cell
phones and tablets and the theft of three commercial vehicles. The crimes
appeared to have been unusually well-planned and brutal, even as Canada contends
with an uptick in cargo theft. Investigators suspect that the six men may have
been involved in crimes going back to 2018, and have connections in eastern and
western Canada. While the value of the electronics shipment was large, Mooken
said the security guard and truck driver from the incidents bore the brunt of
the crimes.

Robberies, Incidents & Thefts
Killeen, TX: Man returns to 7-Eleven in an effort to prove his innocence, 11
years after being convicted of Aggravated Robbery
 George
Powell spent the past 11 years behind bars after he was convicted of robbing a
7-Eleven, until a Texas court said he deserved a new trial. On Monday, he walked
through the doors of the convenience store looking to prove his innocence. The
crux of the case hung on surveillance footage. An expert in the trial said that
the man in the video was over 6 feet tall, which is around Powell's height. But
new forensic specialists are saying that the suspect is much shorter. "I walked
in. I walked out. I was watching the doors, and then I got to stand in the
doorway, and I got to look over and saw that the height sticker. The top one is
like way down here," said Powell, gesturing to below his eye. Powell's case
garnered national attention after Netflix released a documentary highlighting
shortfalls in forensic science.

A lot of articles talk about "How to impress your boss" and give you tips on how
to accomplish this. But at the end of the day, it's all about supporting them,
helping them reach their objectives and not trying to merely impress them.
Impressing a person is great, but usually short lived. Supporting and helping
them reach their goals requires a long-term effort that at times can truly test
your resolve and stamina.
The thought has always been if your boss gets promoted, then you might as well
-- as long as you are the one helping them get ahead.
Just a Thought,
Gus
