Hurricane Dorian - The Labor Day Disruptor - Update
Retailer's Command/Operations Centers Will be in Full Operation
Gaining strength, Hurricane Dorian heads for
Florida
Hurricane Dorian was gathering strength on Thursday as it churned towards
Florida, where it could make landfall as a powerful Category 4 storm.
Florida's governor declared a state of emergency, warning residents on the east
coast of the "Sunshine State" to prepare for a potentially major hurricane.
At 11:00 am (1500 GMT), the National Hurricane Center (NHC) in Miami said that
Dorian was a Category 1 hurricane packing maximum sustained winds of 85 miles
per hour (140 kilometers per hour).
As it approaches Florida, Dorian could be a Category 4 hurricane on the
five-level Saffir-Simpson Wind Scale, the NHC said, with winds of 130 mph (210
kph) and the potential to cause life-threatening storm surge along the coast.

Hurricane
Dorian to become dangerous Category 4 storm
prior to making US landfall
As Dorian spun into the warm, open waters of the Atlantic Thursday, concern grew
about the storm's projected path towards the United States, where it could
strike as a major hurricane over the upcoming holiday weekend.
The National Hurricane Center said during its 11 a.m. advisory that the storm
was about 220 miles north-northwest of San Juan and 370 miles east-southeast of
the Bahamas. The storm, still packing maximum sustained winds of 85 mph, was
moving at 13 mph as it entered the open -- and warmer -- waters of the southern
Atlantic.
"The strengthening to a major hurricane is projected to occur while making a
more westward turn toward the northern Bahamas this weekend," According to
AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski.
"With Dorian forecast to pass over extremely warm water of the Gulf Stream,
where the water is rapidly replaced by more warm water, you have to be concerned
that a Category 5 storm is on the table before reaching the U.S. coast,"
Sosnowski said.
accuweather.com
NOAA Post Key Messages for Hurricane Dorian -
11:00 AM AST Aug 29, 2019
1. Residents should have their hurricane plan in place and listen to advice
given by local emergency officials.
2. Life threatening storm surge likelihood along
portions of the Florida east coast late this weekend or early next week.
3. The risk of devastating hurricane-force winds along the Florida east coast
and peninsula late this weekend and early next week continues to increase.
4. Heavy rains are expected to occur over portions of the Bahamas, Florida, and
elsewhere in the southeastern U.S. this weekend and into the middle of next
week.
McDonald's Under Fire From All Sides
President & Company Responds
The Threat of Violence Remains All Too Real for
Fast-Food Workers
At least once a week, a viral video or news story will emerge about a fast-food
employee being attacked, often with a tabloid-ready headline: On August 14, in
Murfreesboro, Tennessee, a “McDonald’s
customer hurled CDs, slushie at employee because her order was wrong.” Two
days later, a paper in Bradenton, Florida, reported “Customer
didn’t get his filet-o-fish so he ‘pitched a fit’ at McDonalds.” On August
17, in Oklahoma City, a Taco Bell employee was
shot by a customer at a drive-thru window.
The last few weeks have seen a flurry of attention around fast-food chains,
including the Fight for $15’s minimum-wage bill being
quashed in the Senate. Amid the fight for higher wages and protections
against harassment and abuse, the threat of violence to employees remains
overlooked by customers and corporations alike.
Earlier this year, the nonprofit
National Employment Law Project released a report titled “Behind
the Arches: How McDonald’s Fails to Protect Workers From Workplace Violence.”
It began with a series of horrifying stories: the drive-thru customer in South
Carolina who threw hot coffee at a 16-year-old employee over the wait for an
order of fries; the customer in Florida who reached across the counter and
grabbed a worker because there were no straws at the condiment station; the
customer in Arizona who threatened an employee with a shotgun over a missing
packet of hot sauce. These incidents all happened within the span of a few weeks
in January this year.
Looking at three years of news coverage, NELP researchers found 721 instances
of violence against McDonald’s employees at work. Widening the lens beyond
what made the news, a single store in Chicago had nearly double that: 1,356
calls made to 911 over a three-year period.
Editors Note: The writer's statement that "the threat of violence
to employees remains overlooked by customers and corporations alike," is
certainly overstated and uninformed. It's hard to believe that any customer in
today's world is not aware of the dangers posed at any retailer or public area.
And as our annual 'Retail
Fatalities Report' has shown for years, the convenience store and gas
station retailers regretfully have posted the highest fatality rates of any
retailer due to their payroll restrictions and having only one employee on duty
between 8 pm and 4 am, the highest fatality period. And a number of cities have
passed or have tried to pass laws in response to that specifically.
But this writer is calling out an industry concern which warrants discussion.
Especially with the rising violence trends. Just a thought - Gus Downing
McDonald's start new worker training program
following criticism
over workplace safety issues
McDonald's (MCD) announced Wednesday a new training program for restaurant
workers and supervisors that aims to mitigate issues like bullying, sexual
harassment and discrimination.
The company will roll out training materials, developed in partnership with
sexual violence prevention organization
RAINN, for all its US
stores in October. The training will include computer-based and in-person
lessons on issues such as discrimination and retaliation prevention, how to
diffuse violent situations with customers and how to report a harassment
complaint.
The announcement comes after months of criticism of McDonald's by its
restaurant workers, who say they have
experienced violence, sexual harassment and other workplace issues at both
corporate and franchise locations.
In May, workers' rights organizations and the
Time's
Up Legal Defense Fund said a number of sexual harassment charges and
lawsuits had been filed against the fast food chain, and workers hosted a
protest in Chicago over the issue.
"There is a deeply important conversation around safe and respectful workplaces
in communities throughout the US and around the world," Chris Kempczinski,
president of McDonald's USA, said in a statement. "Together with our
franchisees, we have a responsibility to take action on this issue and are
committed to promoting positive change."
"The resulting training, announced today, might be good PR, but it isn't a
solution," said a joint statement from
Fight for $15, the
American Civil Liberties Union
and Futures
Without Violence.

Summer Of Mass Shootings: US Secret Service
Report Looks For Answers
Rising active shooting incidents
One attempt to analyze trends and commonalities among mass shooting incidents is
a research report published by the U.S. Secret Service National Threat
Assessment Center (NTAC) titled “Mass
Attacks in Public Spaces – 2018.” Looking at the totality of major mass
attacks last year, the report seeks to find patterns that can shed light on the
attacks and suggest strategies to prevent and mitigate future incidents.
Between January and December 2018, 27 incidents of mass attacks – in
which three or more persons were harmed – were carried out in public spaces
within the United States. In total, 91 people were killed and 107 more were
injured in locations such as workplaces, schools, and other public areas.
The National Threat Assessment Center report considered all the mass attack
incidents in 2018 and analyzed some trends and statistics:
Over half (59%) took place between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3 p.m., and 63% of
the attacks ended within 5 minutes of when they were initiated.

Security Systems News Poll
76% Say Facial Recognition Will Be Adopted
'Despite privacy concerns, readers bullish on biometrics'
With the debate on biometrics and data privacy heating up, and more and more
states seeking to regulate the collection, use and retention of biometric data,
this month’s News Poll focuses on the future of biometrics and its role in
security.
Interestingly, despite privacy concerns, readers are bullish on biometrics.
While a whopping 94 percent of respondents feel there should be biometric laws
in place, an overwhelming number, 76 percent, think facial recognition will
continue to be adopted.
While many respondents see the benefit of biometric technology within security,
price is still a factor for some. For example, 64 percent said, “It creates a
safer, more seamless experience,” while the remaining 36 percent said they
see, “Some [benefit], but the price is still prohibitive.”
This month’s News Poll stirred up some interesting comments from respondents.

Incarceration Alerts Mitigate Criminal Activity
Risks
6 Compliance Considerations When Implementing a Continuous Monitoring Program
The screening industry has been trying to move its clients—employers—to
recurring screening (or continuous monitoring) for well over a decade, and it
finally looks like we've reached the tipping point where technology can match
the promise.
Continuous monitoring is a true game-changer for employment screening, and I
firmly believe that it will add immeasurable value to any employer, particularly
those in regulated industries. These real-time incarceration alerts are an early
indicator of risky employee behavior that could potentially threaten a business
and its employees. Incarceration alerts equip employers with the knowledge
needed to mitigate business risks that stem from an employee's criminal
activity.
As we all know, even with the promise that accompanies such innovation, there
comes a certain degree of questioning—especially when it comes to background
screening, which is highly regulated. This need for thorough evaluation on
behalf of employers by their legal counsel is understandable and prudent.

Authentic Feet Manages Nike Stock via RFID
The sports shoe manufacturer ships products with radio frequency identification
tags already attached, which has automated 60 percent of the store's inventory
management.
Authentic Feet's CEO, the successful deployment has raised operational demands
and improved inventory control, especially for Nike products. "With Nike's
initiative to ship its RFID-tagged products," he explains, "we had the idea to
take this opportunity to manage our inventory of its products with the same
technology."
Since March 2019, RFID has been used in the company's inventory and sales
processes, including the in-store receipt and verification of products.

Labor Day weekend cargo theft trends infographic
and security tips
Holiday periods are known for increased risk of cargo theft because cargo
thieves look to exploit an abundance of unattended trucks and closed warehouse
facilities. To help preempt their activities, CargoNet® analyzed theft trends
from the Thursday before Labor Day to the Wednesday after Labor Day from 2013 to
2018. CargoNet is a Verisk business.
In this analysis period, CargoNet recorded 114 cargo thefts across the United
States and Canada. Cargo theft activity was highest in California, Texas,
New Jersey, and Florida; but theft was recorded in 24 states and provinces
during this period. Cargo theft most commonly occurred on Thursday in
this analysis—a shift from the Friday or Saturday we usually see. Saturday,
Sunday, and Monday were tied for the second most targeted days. In this
analysis, 2013 had the record for the highest activity, with 29 recorded
cargo thefts; but 2015 was the costliest year on record due to a single $5.7
million theft of cell phones. The value of the stolen cargo among all thefts
exceeded $16.56 million for the entire analysis period.

Nedap launches RFID
Loss Prevention Academy
Online academy
supports retail executives by providing a resource center of knowledge, study
guides, and tests to help aid in adoption and education of RFID technology
Nedap,
the global leader in RFID-based retail solutions, today launches the RFID Loss
Prevention Academy. This is an online learning environment, which consist of
free online courses, study guides and tests. This will help retail executives to
develop critical skills, test knowledge, and demonstrate expertise in the area
of RFID-based loss prevention.
Rob Schuurman, Managing Director of Nedap Retail comments: “Reduction in
inventory due to shoplifting, employee theft, or other errors, significantly
impacts a retailer’s bottom line – to the tune of nearly $100 billion annually
in direct losses worldwide. Regardless of where retail operations are located,
shrink is a universal foe. Nowadays, RFID is the technology that enables
retailers to prevent losses. With this e-learning, we as Nedap are sharing our
expertise in the field of RFID-technology. This will help retailers to gain more
understanding in the area of RFID-based EAS, enabling them to reduce the impact
of losses affecting the retail industry.”
RFID-based EAS
RFID-based EAS technology creates a real-time understanding of what, when and
how specific items go missing by integrating item-level inventory and loss
prevention data. This new insight leverages EAS and RFID inventory-visibility
technologies to provide a complete pictures of loss events to help take loss
prevention efforts to the next level.
-
Track and manage retail shrinkage from all
source to store, in real time
-
Facilitate secured & seamless checkouts
-
Creating Unique Shopper Experiences with open
entrances
-
Differentiate between actual store shrink and
other forms of inventory distortion
-
Pinpoint shrink sources, in the store and all
along the retail supply chain
-
Ability to respond directly to alarms using
an Alarm Notification App
-
Analysis of system data, which predicts
potential shrinkage
Closing the gap between loss prevention and inventory
management
More and more retailers and brands are choosing RFID to gain insight into their
inventory at item level. This ensures optimal product availability. The
foundation of most RFID implementations is that all items are provided with an
RFID label at the source of production. The same RFID label is used for
inventory management and item security. This means that no additional loss
prevention is needed, as stock is already 100% security tagged from source. This
eliminates additional in-store tagging costs and in the same time, it enables
retailers to unlock omnichannel services such as secured mobile checkout.
RFID for loss prevention is also available as a stand-alone option. This
provides retailers with a future-proof loss prevention system if they prefer to
implement RFID for inventory management at a later stage.

The C-Suite Attack Surface
Physical & Digital Security Merging Even More
Even ‘Stealth’ Executives Are at Risk for Serious Security Breaches
It’s near impossible to hide online. No matter how under-the-radar an executive
tries to be, it’s not just notoriety that attracts attention anymore — it’s
their access to wealth, power, and information.
Digital assailants no longer remain hidden behind computer screens holding a
company’s hardware hostage with ransomware. The lines between cyberattacks
and physical attacks are increasingly blurred.
Ten years ago, a person’s constant public exposure would have had a strong
correlation with needing increased security. Back then, an executive’s security
team would audit their physical space, installing alarm systems, security
cameras, and assigning a bodyguard. However, that level of security falls short
by itself nowadays.
Executives need boots on the ground and savvy hands online. By scouring
the web for sensitive information related to an individual, cybersecurity teams
can quickly handle credible threats and escalate them to physical teams when
necessary.
The executives who have the most sophisticated security see safety holistically.
No longer are digital threats isolated to the abstract space of the internet.
Physical security teams must work with digital counterparts to understand risks
in both worlds and develop a plan that protects against it all because, after
all, it’s near impossible to hide on the internet.
Internet-wide Visibility for the C-Suite
Executives are 12 times more likely to be the target of security incidents and
nine times more likely to be the target of data breaches than they were last
year. With financial losses related to reputational attacks ballooning above
400% between 2012 and 2017, much of it from leaked information,
organizations can no longer afford to ignore the risk of C-suite’s attack
surface.

Magecart Shops for Victims as E-Commerce Market
Grows
Crime Syndicates Grabbing Your Customers Payment Info
Magecart, the e-commerce threat behind security breaches at Ticketmaster,
British Airways, and other prominent targets, remains a top concern among
researchers: In 2.5 hours, one security expert discovered more than 80
e-commerce sites actively under the control of Magecart groups.
For the report "In
Plain Sight II: On the Trail of Magecart," conducted by Aite Group and
commissioned by Arxan Technologies, researchers explored the broad attack
surface available to cybercriminals when e-commerce apps aren't properly
protected. The study, released today, analyzes the trail of servers compromised
by Magecart groups, as well as the servers where attackers send data.
Magecart is an umbrella name given to different crime syndicates targeting
payment websites, inserting malicious code, and lifting payment card data.
It's not a new threat, but it is growing alongside the popularity of more secure
payment methods like Apple Pay, Android Pay, and contactless cards. Magecart
groups monetize data via Dark Web markets and shipping scams.
A lack of security controls can expose Web applications to formjacking, an
increasingly popular type of attack in which Magecart groups inject e-commerce
checkout forms with malicious code that sends shoppers' credit card information
to an external server under adversaries' control. Unsecured sites make it easy
for attackers to debug and read JavaScript or HTML5 in plain text.
Magecart groups can break into target systems in a number of ways, but
formjacking is the most common. "Any website that conducts financial
transactions or collects user credentials is a target." Victims ranged from
luxury fashion retailers to motorcycle manufacturers and children's learning
websites.

Express air dominates as pathway for counterfeit
goods
Most international trade moves by ocean, but when it comes to counterfeit goods,
airfreight is king. And that means more regulatory steps to follow for
legitimate shippers and logistics providers.
More than 90% of merchandise seizures for intellectual property rights
violations for the fiscal year ending September 2018 were in the express
consignment and international mail environment, according to the latest
statistics released this month by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Air express facilities accounted for $549.2 million of the $1.4 billion in
fake goods confiscated, while another $197.3 million worth of copycat goods
were intercepted at the nation’s five international mail centers, the agency
reported.
Online and mobile sales have caused a spike in the shipment of small packages,
which are much more difficult for authorities to track and inspect. In fiscal
year 2018, 161 million express shipments and 475 million packages moved through
the international mail system into the U.S.
CBP is trying to implement an e-commerce strategy it rolled out 18 months ago to
address the vulnerability from e-commerce shipments. Under the plan, the agency
intends to expand its risk management and enforcement capabilities. Its wish
list includes:
● Acquiring sophisticated software for data analytics and soliciting more
advance information from supply chain parties to identify suspicious packages;
● Developing industry partnerships and providing trade incentives to companies
with proven internal security processes, similar to what is done in the
Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism;
● Improving interagency and international cooperation on targeting violators,
information sharing and developing commerce standards;
● Modernizing inspection procedures, including new training methods for offices
and realigning staff allocation;
● And ramping up enforcement and penalties to compel compliance.
An upcoming regulation, for example, will require customs brokers who handle
e-commerce shipments to gather much more information, including pictures, about
the importer of record to verify they are legitimate companies.

How to Improve Ecommerce Security
If you have an ecommerce website, you are certainly concerned about its
security. Business revenue depends on your online presence and having a website
compromise is far from desirable.
In order to have a successful ecommerce business, you need to follow the
requirements outlined by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI
DSS). The major credit card companies are behind the PCI requirements whose goal
it is to ensure there’s secure credit cardholder information transmission,
storage, and handling.
That’s why we designed our new PCI DSS compliance requirements guide, an email
course on ecommerce security, and a few webinars to help you reduce the
risk of a data breach.
This guide offers a basic PCI DSS compliance requirement checklist for anyone
who has an ecommerce business.

According to the police, a call came about a stolen vehicle on Sunday: Kelley

Someone walked by, saw the keys and got an idea, so they ended up leaving at the
wheel of the vehicle. What Kelley conveniently forgot to mention was the reason
for which he’d left the keys inside the car: he needed to be able to make a
quick escape because he was out robbing a store across the street. So, while he
was there committing a crime, someone else committed another crime and left him
without his car, aka getaway vehicle.

parole. His crime? Stealing $50.75 from a bakery in 1983. Now 58, Kennard is
coming home after spending more than 35 years — nearly his entire adult life —
behind bars. On Wednesday, when an Alabama judge ordered that he be released
from prison, more than a dozen friends and family members who had gathered in
the courtroom leaped to their feet and cheered.

Getting involved in a process is an obligation and taking it seriously is
absolutely critical to your success regardless of what the process involves.
Whether it's looking at a job or sitting on a company committee. Once you've
committed, your reputation, your image, your future is at stake. Minimizing it
won't decrease the impact nor will it reduce the expectations of others. Because
when you become part of a process, other people are either looking at you or
they're counting on you to be your best or give your best. So once you've
committed, follow through and deliver your best.
Just a Thought, Gus
