Daughter of LP Solution Provider Hedgie Bartol, Axis Communications,
Forms Non-Profit Raising Money for Student-Athlete Concussion Tests
CHARLOTTE,
N.C. - A
Myers Park High School student-athlete who suffered a career-ending
concussion is now working to help other student-athletes.
Eighteen-year-old Chandler Bartol - daughter of Axis
Communications'
Hedgie Bartol - formed a non-profit to try to
raise money for a test she’s convinced would have helped her recovery.
She played pretty much every sport as she soon as she learned to walk.
But during a junior varsity field hockey game her freshman year, she got
a concussion. The doctor told her she should never play contact sports
again.
The doctors later asked Chandler if she had a baseline concussion test,
which she had no idea what that meant. A baseline concussion test looks
at your memory and reflex times and gives doctors an idea of what your
brain looks like when everything is OK. The test also helps track a
patient's recovery if they ever suffer a concussion.
“If I had had a test, it wouldn’t have changed the outcome. It would
have helped my recovery process drastically,” Chandler said.
She didn’t have this because as of now, only high school athletes
receive those tests. Chandler is now trying to change that. She formed
the nonprofit organization called "Head First" and is raising
money to get CMS middle school athletes baseline concussion tests. And
she plans to study sports medicine in college.
Anyone interested in donating to Chandler's foundation to support
the cause can learn more

Royal Wedding Security
$40M and 30,000 police deployed in force's biggest ever operation
Dozens of undercover police officers will mingle with the crowds in a £30
million ($40M US) security operation to protect the wedding of Prince Harry and
Meghan Markle.
More
than 3,000 officers are set to be deployed in Windsor tomorrow in the biggest
operation ever conducted by the Thames Valley force.
Snipers will be posted on rooftops, uniform beat officers will patrol the route
of the procession while undercover officers - some armed - will watch for
threats from the crowd.
Police expect more than 100,000 people to descend on Windsor, with the town
turned into a virtual fortress.
Visitors will be asked to pass through airport-style security scanners and show
the contents of their bags while technology will check number plates on all
vehicles driving into the centre.
Barriers to halt car or lorry terror attacks are up on roads while helicopters
will patrol the skies and marine police will be on the Thames.
Hundreds of officers have been searching the route of the couple’s open-top
procession in advance while drones will be banned from flying over Windsor
Castle all weekend.

Illinois Biometric Class Actions Are on the Rise
Employers overlook requirement to destroy biometric information
More than 100 class actions have been brought in recent months against
employers for violations of the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA),
the strictest biometric law in the nation. That number is likely to rise as a
new wave of class actions will target employers that forget about the timely
destruction of biometric identifiers or information.
BIPA requires covered entities, including employers, to develop a written policy
made available to employees or the general public that establishes a retention
schedule and guidelines for permanently destroying biometric identifiers or
information. Employers can meet the requirement of making the policy available
to the public by placing it on their intranet, Larson said.
The biometric information may not be collected unless the employer first:
● Informs the employee in writing that a biometric identifier or biometric
information is being collected or stored.
● Tells the person in writing of the specific purpose and time in which a
biometric identifier or biometric information is being collected, stored and
used.
● Receives a written release from the employee.

Wells Fargo Employees Altered Information on Business Customers' Documents
Some employees in a Wells Fargo & Co. unit that handles business banking
improperly altered information on documents related to corporate customers,
according to people familiar with the matter. The behavior again raises
questions about Wells Fargo's risk-management practices and controls. The bank
has been sanctioned in recent months by federal regulators for problems in these
areas and as a result can't grow its balance sheet.

J.C. Penney prevails on loss prevention manager's
race discrimination claims
A loss prevention manager for J.C. Penney failed to show that he was denied
promotions because of his race, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled
(Fraser
v. J.C. Penney Corp. Inc., No. 17-13262 (11th Cir. May 4, 2018)).
Sherwin Fraser had sued the nationwide retailer, alleging race and national
origin discrimination, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964. He claimed that the company denied him a promotion several times because
he is black and a native of Trinidad and Tobago. J.C. Penney, defending the
claims, showed that it had previously promoted Fraser several times, given him
high performance ratings and repeatedly recommended that he take advantage of
the company's leadership development program, which he did not. Additionally, it
argued that for one of the job openings, he wasn't the strongest candidate. For
another, the company said, he performed poorly in the job interview. Because
Fraser was unable to show that these reasons were pretext for discrimination, a
district court dismissed his claims.
In defending discrimination claims, documentation often is key. Here, J.C.
Penney was able to show why it declined to promote Fraser. And when an employer
offers a legitimate nondiscriminatory reason for the challenged action, it's up
to the employee to show that the employer's reason isn't real.

BK accused of bias in suit following homeless,
black man’s false arrest
A Burger King worker thought a black man’s $10 bill was fake. He was arrested.
Now he's suing for $1M. The lawsuit comes amid a resurgence in a national debate
about the treatment of black people in businesses and public spaces. The
lawsuit, which was reviewed by The Washington Post, said the Burger King cashier
refused to return Ellis’s money and threatened to call the police if Ellis
didn’t leave the restaurant.
Ellis was arrested and charged with forgery of a bank note. The arrest spurred a
probation violation, and Ellis was held without bail until his final probation
violation hearing, the lawsuit said. Ellis was held for three months - until
February 2016 after the Secret Service determined the $10 bill was real,
according to the lawsuit. His money was never returned.

L Brands founder finds hostile crowd at annual
meeting
Shareholders held L Brands executives feet to the fire, albeit politely, during
the retailers annual meeting on Thursday. Leslie Wexner, founder and chairman of
L Brands, found himself having to answer questions from unhappy shareholders who
wanted an explanation for the company's poor performance in 2017.
Questions included whether L Brands reputation at home was at risk during a
politically divisive time and whether sales at overseas stores were at risk
during times of upheaval.
In the case of overseas sales, “business went to complete hell when Brexit
hit,” Wexner said, adding that he often checks in with the company’s Mideast
franchisee after unrest flares up. dispatch.com
Police move to block the public from listening to scanners
Social-media groups like the Knoxville Crime Facebook group, which has 94,000
members in a city of 186,000, is one reason that Knoxville police officials say
they will begin encrypting police radio communications beginning in August,
making it impossible for the public to listen in live. The move comes as more
police departments around the country are seeking to shield their live radio
communications, now easily accessible via smartphone apps. Police say the effort
will keep officers safe and bad guys from finding out what they're doing.

Nation's largest mall wins Miami-Dade approval as county backs American Dream
Miami
The American Dream Miami retail theme park won final zoning approval Thursday
from Miami-Dade County, clearing a significant hurdle toward building a $4
billion mega-mall on undeveloped land off the Florida Turnpike with enough space
for an indoor ski slope and a submarine lake.
In a 9 to 1 vote, county commissioners approved changing Miami-Dade's growth
plan and zoning designations to allow Canadian developer Triple Five to create
an even larger version of its current signature property, Minnesota's Mall of
America, in Northwest Miami-Dade. With six million square feet of retail and
entertainment space, American Dream Miami predicts 30 million visitors a year
and about 70,000 vehicle trips in and out of the property, roughly equivalent to
some of the busiest stretches of the Dolphin Expressway.

80% of retailers set to spend on visibility platforms powered by RFID, IoT
About 80% of retail organizations have allocated budget to spend on visibility
platforms supported by technologies such as RFID, IoT, inventory management
systems and related capabilities aimed at helping them improve several in-store
and supply chain processes, according to new IDC Tech Brief from IDC Retail
Insights.
The report, "Visibility Platforms for Experiential Retail," shows that more than
60% of retailers already have installed IoT architectures and 85% plan to deploy
such a system within 18 months.
Among the top reasons for deploying visibility platforms: Many retailers see the
technology as helping them improve internal business productivity, as well as
helping to realize savings in areas such as inventory, energy and fuel, systems
maintenance and head count, according to IDC.

Phishing Threats Move to Mobile Devices
A mobile user is 18 times more likely to be exposed to a phishing attempt than
to malware, according to a new report on techniques and technologies that try to
get a user to be an accomplice in their own victimization.
While employees have been taught to be suspicious of links and attachments in
email, there is considerably less scrutiny of channels like SMS, Skype, WhatsApp,
games, and social media. "As more communications take place over mobile devices,
organizations haven't changed their thinking to cover the modes of
communications taking place on the devices," says Michael Covington, vice
president of product at Wandera, which published the report.
Mobile devices are the technology channel on which personal employee and
corporate apps and data come together, and criminal hackers are taking advantage
of that to reach enterprise credentials through personal communications.

From Russia With Love
Federal Jury Convicts Operator of Massive Counter-Antivirus Service
Scan4You helped thousands of criminals check if AV products could detect and
block their malware tools. A federal jury in Virginia has convicted Latvian
resident Ruslans Bondars on charges related to his operation of Scan4You, one of
the largest counter-antivirus (CAV) services in the cyber underground before it
was shut down in 2016. Russian national Jurijs Martisevs, an individual who
assisted Bondars in operating Scan4You, pleaded guilty to his role in March and
is awaiting sentencing.
At least 30,000 people used the illegitimate service to vet their malware before
distribution during the period Scan4You was operational, between 2009 and 2016.

5 Strategies Crypto Thieves Could Use to Steal Your Cryptocurrency
Crypto Theft Has Risen From $3 Million to $500 Million
As cryptocurrencies have risen in prominence, so have crypto thefts and hacking
instances. The cryptocurrency space has seen heists rising from $3 million back
in 2013 to over $500 million in the present year; the biggest of them being the
recent
$500 million Coincheck exchange hack.
Strategies That Crypto Thieves Use
1. Brute Forcing - Brute forcing aka brute force cracking is a trial and error method used by
application programs to decode encrypted data such as passwords or Data
Encryption Standard (DES) keys, through exhaustive effort rather than employing
intellectual strategies. The automated software guesses every possible password
until solved. Hackers use this technique to access the backend and have full
access to funds.
2. Phone-Porting - Phone porting or service provider portability is the ability of end user of an
existing fixed-line or mobile telephone number to reassign the number to another
provider. Hackers use this technique to gain access to a phone number by getting
the number ported to their mobile device. The thief then resets crypto account
passwords and gains access to funds.
3. Phishing - The fraudulent practice of sending emails claiming to be from reputable
companies in order to induce individuals to reveal personal information, such as
passwords and credit card numbers. Hackers use this technique to send suspicious
emails and social media messages, also dispensing malware in some cases. The
North Korean malware attack resulted in a theft amounting to $7 million.
4. Ponzi Schemes - A form of multi-level marketing strategy applied to cultivate a belief in the
success of a non-existent enterprise by the payment of quick returns to the
first investors from money invested by later investors. Investors get bonuses
for getting others to sign up. The 2018 BitConnect collapse is an example here.
5. Mining Malware & Cryptojacking - Cryptojacking is a form of cyber attack in which a hacker hijacks a target’s
processing power or a user’s miner in order to mine cryptocurrency on the
hacker’s behalf. In this technique, the hacker embeds power jacking miners in
ads and extensions from sites like Coinhive that mine using visitor CPUs.

Why Online Merchants Should Make Security A
Year-Round Priority
Why make security a point of emphasis? Well, consider that in 2016 online
fraud
rose 40%, and I have little doubt the 2017 numbers will be even more
harrowing when they’re released. If you’re willing to heed my advice and
resolve to commit resources to improving security, here’s where to start:
Survey Your Situation
Map out all the channels you’re selling through: Online, mobile, social
media platforms, in-store brick-and-mortar, pop-up shops, etc. Make sure you
know how security is (or isn’t) being addressed for each, the risks you’ll
encounter and how you’ll manage them.
In a similar way, map out your human capacity. Be realistic in evaluating
whether you have the employee time and resources to manage payment
approvals, fraud claims and security flags.
Know Your Core Technology
Customer data is your most valuable asset, so it’s also important to be
intimately familiar with how that data is being stored, shared and used both
inside and outside the confines of that e-Commerce platform. Generally
speaking, the fewer points of exposure, the better.
Pick Your Partners
On the fraud prevention front, there are a couple routes you can go down,
depending on the maturity and complexity of your company. First, you can
look into strong standalone products like
Signifyd, which
watches the transaction and the shopper to flag fraud by pulling in data
around browser fingerprinting, the number of high-value items in an order,
frequency of shopping, types of products in a cart and more. The other
option is more complex systems coupled with payments from the likes of
CyberSource or
Vantiv, which offer
bespoke tuning of fraud engines to completely tailor them to your business.
Fall Back On The Standards
Even if you can’t afford some of the flashier tools, there are some baseline
steps you can take to implement best practices for security. At the very
least, implement site-wide HTTPS, on every page of the browser experience
for your online store, all the way through the transaction. Transition from
vulnerable Adobe Flash to HTML5. Finally,
be PCI compliant through and through.
Understand What’s At Stake
The financial
implications in e-Commerce security are obvious, even if the degree to which
they can impact a business might be underestimated. Nearly 50% of small
businesses fall victim to fraud at some point in their lifecycle, and those
incidents
cost
an average of $114,000 per occurrence, according to The Association of
Certified Fraud Examiners. But that doesn’t even take the intangibles into
account.

Indianapolis, IN: Man charged with leading Fraud
Ring that targeted Kroger; over 5000 Fraudulent checks
An Indianapolis man has been charged in a 10-count indictment for his alleged
leadership role in a fraud ring that used thousands of forged checks at Kroger
stores in at least 12 states. Frank D. Powell, 28, faces seven counts of wire
fraud, one count of attempted bank fraud, one count of aggravated identity
theft, and one count of false statements to a financial institution, U.S.
Attorney Josh Minkler announced Thursday. Federal investigators say Powell
organized a ring that used fraudulent checks to purchase gift cards and
merchandise from stores throughout the country from January 2016 until last
month. Powell and his associates are accused of using more than 5,000 fraudulent
checks in at least 30 different individual or business names, such as “Frank
Pawell” and “Pawell Child Care LLC.” After processing, the checks were returned
to Kroger as “account closed, forged, non-sufficient funds or unable to locate
account.”
Powell could face up to 30 years in prison on the bank-related charges, up to 20
years for each of the wire fraud charge, and a mandatory minimum of 2 years on
the aggravated identity theft charge, if convicted. This case was
investigated by the FBI and law enforcement personnel from Indianapolis,
Hamilton County, Fishers, Carmel and Johnson County, and Kroger’s Organized
Retail Crime Investigators.

Tip of the Day
Sponsored

|
At the end of most interviews, candidates are given the opportunity to ask
questions. Surprisingly enough, most candidates are unprepared for that
question, itself. So take the time in your preparation to develop a few well
thought out questions that reflect your knowledge of the company, their future
plans and how you fit within them. Certainly your questions should also focus
around the variables that increase the success of the specific position you're
applying for and not deal with the benefits, salary, or work schedule, travel
requirements, or expenses. As these questions will turn off an interviewer and
are premature. Your questions should be a reflection of the type of executive
you are and will be if they hire you and therefore should be designed to show
how you'll be successful and valuable for their organization.
Just a Thought,
Gus
