Brave New World of Retail
Shopping Centers Exploring Facial Recognition Technology
Some
use technology that recognizes people’s faces but stops short of identifying,
recording them
Landlords could do it all if they wanted. Facial-recognition technology has
advanced to the point that U.S. malls could know shoppers’ names when they
enter, watch what they buy and send them promotions to encourage repeat visits.
Industry executives say they aren’t ready to go that far, partly because of the
likely backlash from privacy advocates. But some U.S. shopping centers have
started to use technology that detects facial features and individuals’ paths
of travel anonymously. Artificial intelligence is then used to mine that
data to determine traffic patterns, worker performance and consumer reaction
to displays and marketing.
NewMark Merrill Cos., which owns 80 shopping centers in California, Colorado
and Illinois, has deployed facial-recognition technology at its Janss
Marketplace, an outdoor mall in Thousand Oaks, Calif. NewMark plans to roll it
out in four more locations.
“We definitely at the minimum want features that accurately identify who your
customers are, where in the shopping centers they go, and how long they spend
there,” said Sandy Sigal, NewMark’s chief executive.
Artificial intelligence is the latest technology shopping-center owners are
using to cope with fast-changing consumer tastes and growth in e-commerce.
Landlords are hoping they can mine insights on consumer behavior from aggregate
data to demonstrate and increase the value of bricks-and-mortar.
Some U.S. retailers have been testing these applications but are loath to
publicize their findings. A Brookings Institution survey last September shows
there is significant opposition to the use of facial-recognition technology in
public places.

Taiwan's CyberLink aims to bring facial recognition to US stores
Reaping the Benefits of Struggling Chinese Firms
Taiwanese surveillance company CyberLink plans to bring its facial recognition
technology to U.S. stores in a bet that it can succeed in a market where
Chinese rivals are struggling to gain a foothold. CyberLink says its FaceMe
software program -- which tracks shoppers' faces and analyzes their emotions --
can help brick-and-mortar stores offer shoppers more personalized service
without compromising privacy.
FaceMe can identify age, gender, facial expression, time spent in the store and
returning customers without maintaining a database of customer images or
personal information, because it stores facial information as vector points
rather than pictures. By tracking head position and orientation, the tool can
determine what the customers are looking at in the store. The program also
provides a reading showing how confident it is in each element of its analysis.
Now CyberLink is "in active conversations" to come to the U.S. It is here that
its Taiwanese identity could give it an advantage. Chinese companies such
surveillance equipment maker Hikvision, facial recognition startup Megvii,
cybersecurity company Meiya Pico and artificial intelligence group iFlytek have
come under fire for supplying to the Chinese government for its mass
surveillance program of the Muslim Uighur population in the country's remote
northwestern region of Xinjiang.

Walmart Confirms Use Of Ireland-Based Technology
Firm To Spot Thieves
According to the
Irish Independent, the retailer, who also owns Asda in the UK, revealed that
it has been working with Everseen, among other companies, to supply some 1000
stores with loss-prevention software over the last two years. Everseen was set
up in 2008 by the son of a Cork shopkeeper looking to solve the issue of
point-of-sale shrinkage - the term used to cover lost revenue from theft and
scanning errors. The software uses video analytics and AI to give Everseen a
‘digital eye’ which can track almost all non-scans. Walmart confirmed that its
shrink rates have declined since the introduction of the system.

$25 Million Mobile Mall Lawsuit Alleges Racial Harassment, Violence, Dog Attack
'Aggressive' Security Guard Cuffed Group Of Young Men Before They Entered Mall
Attorney’s
representing five young African-American males announced Monday a $25
million lawsuit against a Mobile mall after alleging racially motivated
harassment, violence and a security dog attack during a shopping trip less than
two weeks ago.
Rodricus Johnson and Ashton Golston, both 15, Cameron Robinson and Zion Lett,
both 16, and Nathanial Henderson, 20, claim they were approached by an
aggressive security guard outside the Bel Air mall June 22. They hadn’t made
it inside the mall before they were allegedly lined up against a wall and
handcuffed.
After Robinson complained that mall security officers had racially profiled the
group, a K-9 unit security guard allegedly slammed the handcuffed 16-year-old on
his head and ordered his Dutch Shepherd to attack him, according to the second
attorney representing the group, Justin Miller, a partner at Morgan & Morgan.
Steward and Miller said that they believe there is official security camera
footage from the mall. Requests by family members of the group to watch the
footage were denied by Bel Air mall, according to attorneys.
Robinson was bitten several times and later had to be hospitalized for two and
half days. He said that the security guard had his hand on his gun when he first
approached the group and yelled “get the f**k against the wall” before
handcuffing them.

Secret Amazon Project in Seattle
After Years of Secrecy, Big New Amazon Store in Seattle Appears Ready to Open
Amazon
has been involved with a prime retail location in Seattle’s popular Capitol Hill
neighborhood
since 2015, more than a year before the company’s Amazon Go grocery concept
was even announced. It’s an unusually large space for a potential new Amazon Go
store, and would be the first in a residential area.
Now it looks like the secretive project is finally coming to fruition. There was
a flurry of activity at the site last week when GeekWire paid a visit, with
whispers around the neighborhood pointing to an opening as soon as later this
month. The windows are well-shielded from the public — no small cracks
that
reveal any hints this time around — so it’s tough to estimate the progress.
The site features several hallmarks of Amazon Go, the company’s high-tech
grocery concept. Drawings show space for the entry and exit kiosks where
customers scan a QR code on the Amazon Go app that is used to enter the store
and pay for items automatically upon exit.
No traditional checkout areas are shown in the drawings. There is a large
general sales area with a section for alcohol, as well as an employee break room
and storage. A few unique characteristics make this store stand out and give
credence to the possibility that it could be something different from the
typical Amazon Go store, as
GeekWire previously reported.

Rising Costs & Stagnant Income - Not Amazon -
Could Be Driving Retail's
Struggles
While retailers may worry about Amazon and other e-commerce players stealing
share, there are other, more fundamental forces to blame for their dwindling
traffic, customer fickleness and frequent markdowns: Rising healthcare costs
and student debt are siphoning money from consumer pockets.
It's something of a vicious cycle, as thinner wallets mean fewer consumers
can afford the markups sometimes found at bodegas and other smaller stores.
"With fewer and fewer Americans able to grow — or even maintain — wealth, more
and more are turning to lower cost retail providers," Egelanian said. "The
fastest growing retail category in America is dollar stores."
Many retailers themselves add to the problem by paying workers below living
wages, usually without benefits. Treating labor costs as a line item that must
shrink is worst at companies, often leveraged by private equity, that treat
their operations as financial instruments, rather than enterprises with
merchandise to sell.

Nike recalls American flag-themed shoe after Colin Kaepernick raises racial
concerns
In
a decision that will thrust Nike into the spotlight of corporations walking a
tightrope between product and historic symbolism, the athletic giant has pulled
an American flag-themed shoe from circulation after former NFL quarterback Colin
Kaepernick expressed concern to the company about selling apparel he says
features a slave-era emblem.
According to a source who spoke with Yahoo Sports, Nike began a movement to pull
the shoe from stores nearly two weeks ago after Kaepernick and others raised
concern that the “Betsy Ross Flag” printed on the heel of the company’s 4th of
July-themed Air Max 1 was not only racially insensitive, but had also been
adopted by some groups such as the Patriot Movement and Identity Evropa
(pronounced “Europa”) allegedly as a symbol of white nationalism.

Arizona Gov. Ducey to withdraw Nike plant incentives after Colin Kaepernick,
'Betsy Ross Flag' sneaker report
Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey announced Tuesday he’s withdrawing all financial
incentive dollars to have Nike open a manufacturing plant in the state after a
report said the sneaker company pulled its “Betsy Ross Flag” shoes following
Colin Kaepernick’s criticism.
“Today was supposed to be a good day in Arizona, with the announcement of a
major @Nike investment in Goodyear, AZ,” Ducey began his tweets. He then pointed
to the Journal report about sneakers being pulled allegedly due to Kaepernick’s
criticism of the footwear. Ducey said he ordered the Arizona Commerce Authority
to withdraw “all financial incentive dollars” the state was going to provide for
Nike to build a manufacturing plant.

'Epicenter of Security Technology': Securing the Houston Dynamo Soccer Stadium
There are 56 IP security video surveillance cameras mounted inside and
outside of the stadium, all of which feed into a command post. The outside
cameras tie into the city of Houston police department and provide Gonzalez
information on the parking lot, pedestrian and vehicle traffic outside of the
stadium and queue lines for before and after the games.
There are three cameras that feed video directly to the MLS League offices in
New York to monitor the field of play, in addition to ensuring game presentation
aspects. A VMS provides video analytics to help stadium security and operations
to identify and mitigate any issues and communicate information to the 160 to
200 security team on game day, which also includes a team of Harris County

Trump administration wants to ban end-to-end encryption
Ban could help law enforcement but be exploited by hackers & foreign govts
The Trump administration are looking into the possibility of banning
encryption techniques that cannot be broken by law enforcement, a proposal
that would weaken encryption as a whole for users and businesses, and could make
messaging clients like Apple's iMessage stop using end-to-end encryption.
The issues law enforcement agencies have in gaining access to evidence stored on
encrypted devices or services has led to a long-running debate between
governments, officials of security organizations, and tech companies over the
effectiveness of encryption. While the former wants to weaken it, the latter,
including Apple, are fighting to keep it strong.
Senior White House officials are said to have attended a National Security
Council meeting on Wednesday, discussing the possibility of asking Congress to
outlaw end-to-end encryption, three people familiar with the matter told
Politico. The second-in-command officials from "several key agencies" were also
reportedly in attendance at the discussion, most likely alluding to the
security agencies like the FBI, CIA, and others.
A request to Congress to introduce laws banning encryption will face stiff
opposition from tech companies and their customers, as it would effectively
force Apple, Google, Facebook, and other service providers relying on
end-to-end encryption to use weaker security. For consumers, this could make the
services less trustworthy.
For lawmakers, banning end-to-end encryption would simplify the process of
acquiring data from within encrypted communications, but critics maintain this
has a cost. The same backdoors and weakpoints could be exploited by hackers
and agencies from foreign governments, enabling the ability to spy on US
citizens, while at the same time criminals and terrorists may simply
ignore the law and use their own protected systems.

Closing the perception gap between security pros and executives
For some time, security professionals have talked about the need to have their
voices heard at the highest level in the organization. Now, with so many
breaches over the years – the first four months of this year alone seeing
5.64 billion records leaked - there are few executive boards, if any, that
aren’t in some way concerned about cybersecurity.
However, a recent study has proven that there is still more work to be done in
terms of aligning security teams with their board-level executives.
Seeing eye-to-eye
Recently, AT&T Cybersecurity took the opportunity to gauge the opinions of more
than 700 security professionals on this topic. While around 56 per cent of
respondents were mostly or completely on the same page with board-level
stakeholders, 44 per cent were either sometimes or not at all in agreement.
Focus by sector
Looking at the results through the lens of industry sectors provides further
insights. Financial services, manufacturing, and the public sector, where
threats are high and potentially devastating, had a typical distribution curve
that matched the aggregate, indicating a higher collaboration with board level
stakeholders.
Putting the best foot forward
The threat landscape is ever-shifting. To keep on top of the latest threats
requires collaboration with peer companies, robust reporting on system
activities, as well as actionable threat intelligence in which the primary goal
is to drive the detection of emerging (new) threats and to drive resilient
threat detection. This means the ability to detect threats even as IT systems
evolve (i.e. cloud migration, IoT, mobility, 5G).

N.Y. man sentenced in ‘dark web' credit card fraud scheme
Sungwoo Han, of Queens, NY was sentenced Friday in state Superior Court after
pleading guilty on May 10 to second-degree trafficking in personal identifying
information of another. Han handed over a fake learner's permit during a traffic
stop in Allamuchy, leading to his arrest for trafficking fraudulent credit and
debit cards using stolen personal information, has been sentenced to three years
in prison. After arresting Han, the trooper seized seven fraudulent credit cards
along with a small amount of methamphetamine in Han's possession. A search of
his vehicle yielded 30 more fraudulent credit and debit cards, six additional
fraudulent identification cards. It was later found Han was obtaining stolen
personal identifying information on the "dark web," which was used to generate
fraudulent credit and debit cards.
A search of his smartphone revealed more than
400 sets of personal identifying information including names, addresses, Social
Security numbers and birth dates, the office stated.

How to Stop Targeted Ads
Google, Facebook and Apple have ad platforms that can send ads based on the
information they collect about you, like your name, address, age, gender,
internet habits and location. You can opt out of these targeted ads, usually in
the platform’s settings. This won’t change the number of ads you see, but they
won’t be targeted and in some cases it limits the information the platform can
collect. |

Deep Dive: How Fraud Runs Rampant In Mobile
Ordering
Mobile order-ahead apps are growing more popular by the day, and restaurants are
clamoring to get on board. A QSR Magazine
study found that 73 percent of diners have used mobile ordering, 63 percent
have at least one mobile ordering app on their phones and 35 percent use mobile
ordering every time they visit QSRs.
Consumers are eager to utilize these services, but cybercriminals are just as
ready to exploit them. Overall digital fraud
increased by 13 percent in the past year, with the food and beverage
industry seeing an increase of 60 percent – nearly four times above average.
It’s open season for hacks on mobile order-ahead apps as data breaches continue
to make headlines regularly and cybercriminals purchase stolen identities on
darknet marketplaces.
Account Takeovers Plague the QSR Industry
Cybercriminals can obtain stolen identities for as little as $4, meaning
it’s easier than ever for them to launch account takeover (ATO) attacks. They
can use individuals’ credentials to gain access to accounts and then obtain
stored payment information, allowing them to make purchases or drain accounts of
accrued awards points.
Such attacks have plagued McDonald’s customers in Canada over the past
few months, racking up thousands of dollars in fraudulent charges. One consumer
in Nova Scotia
reported more than $480 CAD in illicit orders over four days, while a victim
in Toronto
faced more than $2,000 CAD worth of charges in McFlurries, Big Macs, Chicken
McNuggets and poutine. The transactions occurred in rapid succession at multiple
locations, suggesting that the hacker distributed stolen data to other
criminals.
Chipotle’s customers
reported a similar string of attacks in April, with victims swindled out
of up to $500 USD each. One victim did not even have a Chipotle
account, but had used the QSR’s guest checkout option. Chipotle denied any
breach of its databases or systems.
The McDonald’s and Chipotle hacks are currently unsolved, underscoring the
difficulty of catching and prosecuting cybercriminals.

The Psychology of an Online Shopper: Why
Merchants Must Prioritize Security
Consumers are becoming more security conscious when it comes to shopping online.
Therefore, online retailers cannot afford to rest solely on their features and
benefits, ignoring consumer demand for enhanced safety. However, merchants are
faced with the challenge of responding to customer demand and maintaining a
secured environment, while fighting to attract loyal customers and keep up with
the competition.
The reality is customers believe that they should be able to buy what they want,
when they want and how they want. In fact,
50 percent
of consumers will abandon a transaction if their preferred payment method isn't
offered. Merchants want and need to attract new customers, therefore they
must make it easy for consumers to purchase their goods online. They can help
them do so by offering the right payment mix and minimizing the risk factor to
ensure consumer trust.

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.
