How might COVID-19 impact retailers for years to come?
How has the retail industry been impacted since the pandemic hit? How have
companies tried to adapt and evolve to meet today’s challenges?
Two of Axis’
industry experts answer these questions and discuss how network technology is
and will continue to play a pivotal role in the retail industry now and
post-pandemic.
Many retailers today serve their customers through an omnichannel approach. This
encompasses everything needed to provide a seamless experience for customers
regardless of their manner of shopping. Whether they shop via e-commerce using a
mobile device or laptop, by phone, or in-person at a store, consumers expect
their shopping experience to be integrated and whole.
The COVID-19 health crisis has accelerated some shopping behaviors and caused
them to grow at a faster-than-normal pace - and it’s easy to see how. For
example, look at the surge in buy online pick up in store (BOPIS) or curbside
pickup. General merchandise retailer Target recorded more than 700 percent
growth in curbside pickup in the second quarter of 2020, compared with the same
period in 2019.
Safety and security requirements in the retail sector have become more
complex as a result of COVID-19-related restrictions on indoor shopping, as well
as the rapid expansion of BOPIS shopping. This is especially true for
nationwide retail chains, which currently face a multitude of different COVID-19
restrictions that vary by locale.
COVID-19 has caused retailers to want to implement network technology at an
accelerated pace. In mid-2020 the industry buzzed with talk about solutions
that could depict occupancy levels in stores, check shoppers’ compliance with
wearing masks, and detect elevated skin temperature for indication of a person
with a fever.
But Hedgie Bartol, segment development manager–retail, Axis Communications, Inc.
says that’s putting the cart before the horse per se.

Protests & Violence
'Smashing Windows & Looting Are Not Protesting'
White House condemns violence amid Portland, Seattle riots
White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked during the White House press
briefing Monday for Biden’s reaction to recent unrest in the Pacific Northwest.
"President Biden condemns violence and any violence in the strongest possible
terms," Psaki said. "Peaceful protests are a cornerstone of our democracy but
smashing windows is not protesting and neither is looting, and actions like
these are totally unacceptable."

Portland Mayor 'very pleased' with police protest response on Inauguration Day
Weeks after he vowed to take a stronger stance stopping violent or destructive
protests,
Portland’s mayor said Monday he’s “very pleased” with how the city’s police
bureau handled demonstrations during last week’s Inauguration Day. In the midst
of those demonstrations, people smashed windows at the
headquarters of the Democratic Party of Oregon and clashed with police, as
well as federal officers, outside the
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) offices along the South
Waterfront.
“[Police] were able to make good identifications of people engaged in criminal
destruction and violence,” Wheeler said in a press conference Monday. “They were
able to make quick arrests.”

Missouri bill would allow deadly force against demonstrators
A Missouri senator on Monday pitched a bill that would allow the use of deadly
force against protesters on private property and give immunity to people who run
over demonstrators blocking traffic. The
proposal is one of several that follow sometimes violent protests in
Missouri last summer over the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police
custody.

NPR: Fatal Police Shootings Of Unarmed Black People Reveal Troubling Patterns
The deadly shooting of unarmed Black men and women by police officers in the
U.S. has increasingly garnered worldwide attention over the last few years. The
2014 killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, sparked a week of protests
that catapulted the Black Lives Matter movement into the national spotlight.
Since then, tens of thousands of people across the country have taken to the
streets to protest police brutality of Blacks by mostly white officers.
Since 2015, police officers have fatally shot at least 135 unarmed Black men and
women nationwide,
an NPR investigation has found. NPR reviewed police, court and other records to
examine the details of the cases. At least 75 percent of the officers were
white. The latest one happened earlier this month in Killeen, Texas, when
Patrick Warren, Sr., 52, was fatally shot by an officer responding to a mental
health call.
For at least 15 of the officers the shootings were not their first--or their
last, NPR found. They
have been involved in two--sometimes three or more--shootings, often deadly and
without consequences.
Those who study deadly force by police say
it's
unusual for officers to be involved in any shootings.
"Many officers will go their entire career without shooting--sometimes without
pulling their gun out at all," said Peter Scharf, a criminologist and professor
in the School of Public Health at Louisiana State University and author of The
Badge and the Bullet: Police Use of Deadly Force. "It's rare."
Among NPR's other findings:
At least six officers had troubled pasts before being hired onto police
departments, including drug use and domestic violence. Several officers were
convicted of crimes while on the force, such as battery, and resisting and
obstructing, but kept their jobs. More than two dozen officers have racked up
citizen complaints or use of force incidents. Several officers have violated
their department policies and been cited for ethics violations. Nineteen of the
officers involved in deadly shootings were rookies, with less than a year on the
force. One was on the job for four hours; another for four days.

“We are asking people, can you just please abide by the mask rule in our city?
And if there is a business that requires a mask. Would you just wear it?” said
Mayor Jerry Dyer.
The group protesting the mask policy at Sprouts Saturday also went to

The Favorable Post COVID-19 Future of Retail Loss Prevention
By
Tony D'Onofrio, Global Retail Influencer
This article summarizes and expands on some of my high-level concepts shared in
a recent LP Foundation webinar titled "The power of Teamwork: How Retail LP
can work with law enforcement to combat the double problem of ORC and Violent
Gangs."
Organized Retail Crime Increasing and Getting More
Violent
As a December 2020 National Retail Federation (NRF)
report pointed out, USA organized retail crime (ORC) cost retailers an
average $719,548 per $1 billion in sales, up from $703,320 in 2019. This is the
fifth year in a row the figure has topped $700,000 and is up significantly from
$453,940 in 2015.
A disturbing trend is the increase in retail violence. Fifty-seven
percent of retailers surveyed report that ORC gangs are exhibiting somewhat to
much more violence that the previous year. A separate industry
report from the D&D Daily confirmed these violent retail challenges. Even with all the pandemic
store lockdowns, in 2020, retail fatalities were up 5% and incidents were up
14%.

New Covid Variants Could Quickly Erase Progress
Everyday activities like shopping are more dangerous now that new Covid-19
variants are circulating, expert says
Health officials are "extremely" worried about the new Covid-19 variants that
have been detected in the US and what they could mean over the coming months,
one expert said Monday night.
"We've seen what happens in other countries that have actually had coronavirus
under relatively good control, then these variants took over and they had
explosive spread of the virus, and then overwhelmed hospitals," emergency
physician Dr. Leana Wen told CNN's Anderson Cooper.
Officials in Minnesota announced Monday they detected the
P.1 variant of the virus in a traveler from
Brazil. The variant is one of four being
closely watched by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and appears to
be more easily transmissible. CDC officials have also said
another variant -- called B.1.1.7 and
first spotted in the UK
-- has been detected in more than 20 states.
While the US seems to be heading in the right direction on infection rates --
with 42 states reporting downward trends -- that progress could be erased if
variants take hold, Wen said. Preventing that will mean extra vigilance.
"If there is something more contagious among us,
if we thought that going to the grocery
store before was relatively safe, there's actually a higher likelihood of
contracting coronavirus through those every day activities,"
she said. "Wearing an even better mask,
reducing the number of times that we have to go out shopping, or in indoor
crowded settings, all of that will be helpful."

How Covid Has Changed The Retail Workforce
Few sectors of the economy have been as affected by Covid-19 as the retail
sector, with most non-food stores forced to close for extended periods, shifting
demand online, while food-based retailers enjoyed booming sales as people
attempted to stock up (while obviously not eating out quite so much either).
New
research from UC Santa Cruz explores how the pandemic has changed the very
nature of the retail workforce, with a particular focus on the food retail
sector. As with so much, the authors argue that the pandemic has accelerated
many of the labor market trends that had been emerging in recent years. For
instance, e-commerce had been a growing presence in the grocery sector, which
created a number of implications for workers.
"The growth of e-commerce sales for food has increased the number of jobs
available at a time when unemployment across the U.S. economy has skyrocketed.
Grocery workers now are seen as essential workers, even heroes," the researchers
say. "At times they even have received extra hazard pay. And yet media reports
also are full of stories of ongoing low wages and poor working conditions,
severe health risks, and employer retaliation against workers who speak out."

Incentives for Shots
Amazon, Aldi, Walmart, Trader Joe’s and other retailers
begin to encourage workers to get the vaccine
Some
stores say they will give employees paid time off and bonuses when COVID-19
vaccines are more broadly available.
Retailers are still trying to get priority status for their employees in the
COVID-19 vaccine pipeline while they promote the shots to their workers with
incentive offers to get vaccinated.
Amazon,
which has 800,000 employees in the U.S., said Wednesday that it had an agreement
with a health care provider to vaccinate workers at its Amazon fulfillment
centers, AWS data centers and Whole Foods Market stores who can’t work from
home. Amazon’s front-line employees haven’t been given a time frame because
Amazon doesn’t yet have access to the vaccines, but in messaging to employees
the retailer has referenced the shots’ effectiveness.
Walmart,
the largest U.S. employer, with 1.5 million employees, has also been talking up
the vaccine. “We’re educating essential workers and all associates on getting
the vaccine as soon as they are eligible,” Dr. Cheryl Pegus, the chain’s
executive vice president for health and wellness, said in a blog post Friday.
“We are strongly encouraging all associates to get vaccinated but are not
mandating anyone receive the vaccine nor are we providing incentives at this
time.”
Dollar General
is offering its 157,000 employees four hours of pay to get the vaccine.
Aldi
said last week that it would give two hours of pay for each dose employees
receive. The discount grocer also said it planned to set up vaccination clinics
at its warehouses and offices to provide easier access.
Trader Joe’s
is encouraging employees to get vaccinated
and will make sure schedules are adjusted around vaccine appointments.

Walmart positions itself as key COVID-19 vaccine provider for rural America
Walmart expects to be able to administer between 10 million and 13 million
COVID-19 shots per month at its more than 5,000 in-store pharmacies in the
United States and Puerto Rico once it has sufficient access to vaccine supplies,
the company said Friday in a
blog post. The retailer said it is especially focused on providing
vaccinations in regions where people have limited access to healthcare services
and is prepared to work with community organizations to run vaccine clinics
outside its stores.

Vaccines & Counting
CVS, Walgreens finish first round of vaccines
CVS Health has administered 2 million COVID-19 vaccines at nearly 8,000
long-term care facilities, completing the first round of vaccines under a
federal program with plans to finish the second round in four weeks. Walgreens,
which has also partnered with the federal government to vaccinate residents of
these facilities, said it expected to finish the first round Monday after giving
more than 1 million shots.

The Complexities of Securing COVID-19 Vaccines in Hospitals
Collaboration, video surveillance and access control have proved essential for
healthcare facilities to be able to safely store and administer the coronavirus
vaccine.
While the monstrous and ever-evolving task of executing a vaccine rollout has
required cooperation and dedication from nearly all hospital employees, security
departments have played an integral role in ensuring it runs as smoothly as
possible with minimal threats.
As with any public health crisis, natural disaster or other emergency, it is
essential that hospitals constantly review security plans already in place to
ensure the continued safety of patients, employees and assets. ASIS, a
professional organization for security professionals, recommends facilities
review their processes for coordinating with local law enforcement partners and
other healthcare facilities to “stay abreast of any potential risks, such as
civil disturbances, protests or other security issues” that may arise during the
rollout.
Civil disturbances were of significant concern before vaccine distribution began
due to many reports of conspiracy theorists looking to disprove the existence of
or steal or sabotage the vaccine in order to halt its distribution for a
multitude of reasons.

New York’s vaccine rollout has left out a high-risk group: inmates
When New York announced new vaccine eligibility guidelines two weeks ago
covering millions of additional state residents, one particularly hard-hit group
remained unmentioned: the nearly 50,000 people incarcerated in the state’s
prisons and jails. Now, with state supplies dwindling and no clear plan for
vaccinating incarcerated people,
the virus is roaring back behind bars.
At least 5,100 people living and working in New York’s prisons have tested
positive and 12 have died in recent weeks, outpacing even the early days of the
pandemic. But how and when to vaccinate incarcerated people as millions around
the state wait has raised legal, logistical and ethical questions.

433 Private Security Officers Arrested in 2020,
According to Private Officer International
Security officers do good work, save lives, and protect people and property.
They're also frequently the victim of assaults and vicious attacks and
in 2020, 327 died on duty. Security officer
on duty deaths is often the result of assaults and homicides.
Most of the time security officers work alone and must defend themselves against
attackers who are armed, and this can sometimes lead them to be arrested for
going too far. Even with the best training, an individual being attacked,
fearing for his life or being in a situation where they are alone and
defenseless, will go into a survival mode and use whatever means necessary to
escape harm or death.
It is not unusual for a private security officer to find themselves on the wrong
side of the law and 2020 was no different. Although the pandemic slowed down the
economy, closed businesses and in some cases reduced the need for the use of
private security, 433 security officers were arrested
and a number face profoundly serious charges including assault with a weapon,
aggravated assault, and murder.
Of those 2020 arrests, at least 17 face murder charges, 2 were charged with
kidnapping after unlawfully restraining a person and dozens of other security
officers faced felony charges of identity theft, burglary, rape, and fraud.
61 security officers faced charges for unlawful firearm possession, expired
security licenses, and not complying with other state regulatory laws. Dozens
more were charged with misdemeanors ranging from disorderly conduct,
shoplifting, theft, to vehicle tampering, all while on duty.
Between 2016 and 2021 the number of on-duty arrested security officers rose
by 61.7 percent and certain factors directly correlate to those arrests
including the higher use of private security, more armed security personnel,
and a reduction of training requirements by some state regulatory agencies.

Beyond COVID-19: Six policy priorities for NRF in 2021
NRF
members’ highest priority remains the health and safety of retail workers,
customers and the communities they serve. Steps such as robust support for
testing and vaccine distribution should be the first order of business alongside
additional action on fiscal stimulus. The pending Safe and Healthy Workplace Tax
Credit, for example, would help offset enormous costs retailers incur for
protective gear and store safety measures. Other priorities include further
direct payments to individuals in a combination of income and rent assistance to
help consumers manage during these trying times. Lastly, targeted and temporary
liability protection against unwarranted lawsuits should be enacted for
customer-facing businesses.
As the situation improves, however, other priorities will return. Here are
key issues impacting retailers that NRF is asking Congress to address:
International trade and
the retail supply chain | Supply chain infrastructure | Data privacy | Labor |
Payments and card security | Tax reform |

String of IT Security Vendor Hacks
SonicWall Is Latest Security Vendor to Disclose Cyberattack
Network security firm
SonicWall is
investigating a coordinated attack in which attackers allegedly exploited
vulnerabilities in the company's products to breach its internal network. It's
the latest in a string of security vendors to become a target for attackers. In
a statement published Jan. 22, SonicWall officials wrote they detected an attack
"by highly sophisticated threat actors exploiting probably zero-day
vulnerabilities on certain SonicWall secure remote access products."
As of Jan. 23, the company has
confirmed its SonicWall Firewalls, NetExtender VPN Client, Secure Mobile
Access (SMA) 1000 Series, and SonicWave Access Points were not affected in the
recent attack. The SMA 100 Series, used to provide employees with remote access
to internal resources, is under investigation but "may be used safely in common
deployment use cases."
A Concerning Trend
SonicWall is the latest IT security vendor to confirm a breach in recent weeks.
Others include
Microsoft,
FireEye, and
Malwarebytes, all of which disclosed cyberattacks related to the massive
SolarWinds attack campaign
targeting major US government agencies and businesses.
Attackers also attempted to
breach CrowdStrike;
however, their efforts were not successful.
"There is an undeniable trend of security companies disclosing more breaches
publicly over the last several months," says Allie Mellen, Forrester analyst
covering security and risk. "That said, I wouldn't rush to judgement and assume
this is due to an uptick in targeted attacks against security companies
specifically."
She suspects the increase in reported attacks can be linked to some companies
changing their approach to breach disclosure. Over time, more security firms
have chosen to speak publicly about the attacks they face — sometimes due to
regulatory compliance, sometimes to warn the community of a new threat.
While breach disclosures are growing common, it's worth noting that
security
vendors are an appealing attacker target,
notes Brandon Hoffman, CISO at Netenrich. That's a concern, he says, because
security practitioners need tools they can depend on for detection and defense.
By targeting the tools meant to detect cyberattacks, adversaries stand to gain
an advantage. And they don't have to succeed to make an impact, he notes.
"To a degree, it is
less important that these attacks are successful, but at a minimum eroding
confidence in the tools,"
Hoffman explains. Whether this erosion serves as a distraction to key security
functions or forces security practitioners to refocus their efforts remains to
be seen.

DDoS extortions making its way back
Radware recently published a cybersecurity alert, warning users were once again
being targeted by DDoS extortionists for a second time by a global ransom DDoS
campaign that initially started in August 2020. Organizations received a new
letter that said, "Maybe you forgot us, but we didn’t forget you. We were busy
working on more profitable projects, but now we are back.”
Organizations that received this letter were companies that received threats in
August and September of 2020. Analysis of this new wave of ransom letters
suggests that the same threat actors from the middle of 2020 are behind these
malicious communications.

$5.4 Billion in Annual Losses
The Hidden Costs of Buying Fake Cosmetics on Sites Like Amazon
Thanks
to the rise in sales on e-commerce platforms like Amazon, counterfeiting luxury
products has become a “highly profitable venture,” according to the Department
of Homeland Security. The cosmetics industry loses more money to counterfeit
products each year than any other industry, losing around $5.4 billion each
year to fraudulent sellers, according to a report from the Organisation for
Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
Amazon, for its part, “strictly prohibits the sale of counterfeit products,” and
“invest[s] heavily in both funds and company energy” to enforce the policy,
according to a company spokesperson.
Still, over 42% of items purchased during a 2018 government investigation of
third-party vendors on sites like Amazon and Walmart were fakes. Every
single cosmetic item purchased in the investigation was believed to have been a
counterfeit, including an Urban Decay eyeshadow primer that was a near-exact
replica of the actual product.
The rise in counterfeit cosmetic goods is dangerous for consumers’ health —
and their wallets.
Counterfeiters aren’t beholden to customer complaints, and the goods they peddle
go unchecked by federal regulators like the Food and Drug Administration. So
buyers run a much higher risk of coming into contact with ingredients that cause
allergic reactions or contain toxic materials.

Amazon employees gave millions to Biden, strongly outweighing cash for Trump,
data shows
Amazon employees gave Biden $2.2M, but donated just $260,000 to Trump
Amazon employees showered Joe Biden's presidential campaign with cash
during the 2020 election, funneling millions of dollars to the then-candidate —
far more than they gave to Republican Donald Trump.
Figures published by the Center for Responsive Politics show that Amazon
workers gave more than $2.22 million to Biden's presidential campaign during
the election, and $934,747 to the DNC Services Corp.
The third-highest donation by Amazon employees went to Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
Sanders, a self-declared democratic socialist who frequently battles with Amazon
CEO Jeff Bezos, received $803,732 from individuals who work at the e-commerce
behemoth.
By comparison, then-President Trump received just $260,140 in donations from
Amazon workers. Of the top 10 political candidates and organizations that
Amazon employees donated to, Trump is the only Republican.

Little Rock, AR: 2 steal over $1,000 in merchandise from Park Plaza mall,
threaten to shoot employee
Two people stole around $1,000 of merchandise from a mall in Little Rock on
Saturday night and then threatened to shoot a store employee, according to a
police report. Around 9:10 p.m. on Saturday, employees at the store Drip inside
Park Plaza Mall called police about a robbery. Witnesses told police that two
suspects came into the store, pulled out a Claire's shopping bag and filled it
with clothing. One of them had a device to remove tags from the merchandise,
according to one witness.
A Claire's employee told police that the pair had taken about $400 worth of
merchandise from their store. Sephora employees told police that they had been
inside the Sephora as well but they didn't know if the suspects took anything.
Drip employees began approaching the suspects and they left the store, according
to the police report. One employee then took photos of the suspects and followed
them out of the store to ask them to return over $600 worth of stolen clothing.
The suspects turned around and told the employee they'd shoot them if they kept
following them, according to the report.

Iron County, MO: 2 remaining Missouri jail escapees arrested in Colorado for
Shoplifting at Walmart
The
final two escaped inmates from Iron County, Missouri, have been arrested in

attempting to shoplift from a Walmart on Sunday night. Authorities were also
able to arrest Samuel Gillam after interviewing several witnesses in Denver.

Atlanta, GA: Burglary crew hits Cherokee County pharmacy and leaves with
narcotics, money; suspects may be tied to pharmacy burglaries in Metro Atlanta
Multiple agencies are looking for clues in an early morning pharmacy burglary
that may be connected to several more in the region. The Ball Ground Police
Department in Cherokee County reports that, around 4:30 a.m., three men forced
their way into the Ball Ground Pharmacy. The suspects then took "a significant
amount" of narcotics and an undisclosed amount of cash. Investigators soon
learned there were similarities to an incident in Pickens County at Bell's
Pharmacy around 4:19 a.m. Detectives in that county were able to provide
surveillance video showing one of the men carrying a yellow crowbar and another
holding a gun. Police now believe the same group may be behind pharmacy
burglaries in Covington, Newnan, and Gwinnett County as well. The department is
now asking anyone with information to call 911 - and the public-at-large to be
vigilant.

CBP Officers seize more than $550K in counterfeit designer goods
U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers in Minneapolis seized two shipments
of fake designer clothes worth more than $550,000. According to a news release,
CBP officers on Jan. 22 seized the shipments arriving from Laos, with officers
noting the clothing had "various inconsistencies, poor quality and incorrect
packaging." The items – handbags, wallets, fanny packs and phone cases with
logos from designers that included Gucci, Louis Vuitton and Chanel – were headed
to two separate addresses – one in Minneapolis, the other in Superior,
Wisconsin. It was then determined the goods violated CBP trademark and copyright
codes. If the goods were authentic, they'd be worth $562,719.

Sometimes it's not what you say that's important as much as it's what they feel
six months after the conversation. Being a good wordsmith is a skill, but
ensuring that what you say leaves the right impression long term is a true art
and one that is only reached by reflection and intention.
