Election Unrest, Violence & Protests


Retailers Told to Board Up Before Election Day
Beverly Hills PD issues dire warning to retailers to board up their windows ahead of possible Election Day protests

Rodeo Drive will shut down in fear of rioting and chaos

Beverly Hills business owners have been
told to board up their windows by the local police department, as officials expect rioting throughout Los Angeles following the presidential election results, according to a text message obtained by DailyMail.com.

The BHPD sent out a
mass text to all business owners in the area on Friday 'strongly' suggesting that all buildings on Rodeo Drive board up store windows by 11pm on Monday, November 2.

The department also informed owners that the
famed street would be completely shut down by 12am that Monday, with no cars or pedestrians allowed to pass through. The notice also stated that no businesses should be operating 'out of safety for the community and business patrons' during the road closure.

The text comes in anticipation of mass
protests and possible rioting throughout the city on Tuesday, November 3, in the wake of the presidential election results.

Officials fear that peaceful demonstrations on either side could turn violent after the country learns whether President Donald Trump will secure another four years in office or if former VP Joe Biden will take hold of the White House. dailymail.co.uk

Big Cities Trying to Avoid Repeat of Summer Unrest
Retailers, business owners bracing for potential unrest, officials say

'Fear of civil unrest and looting looms large' over some communities, one official said

Business owners in some parts of the nation are
concerned and uncertain whether they should open on or around Election Day amid fears of protests or destruction, local groups and police officials said.

Authorities in
Chicago, Miami, Portland, Washington, D.C. and other cities are working with local business people to address potential ways businesses could be impacted before, during and after the election, law enforcement officials and representatives of business groups told FOX Business.

The
looting and property damage that happened during or following some racial justice protests "had a devastating impact. And that's really what needs to be prevented," he said. foxbusiness.com

300+ National Guard troops being trained
Military, police in Washington state prepare for possible civil unrest after election
Federal, state and local officials have participated in “tabletop” exercises outlining possible scenarios for post-election violence and mayhem. At least 300 National Guard soldiers, recently deployed overseas, are being trained to handle civil unrest. They will be placed on alert with hundreds of other Guard members who have already been trained for handling such disturbances. Police leaders in Seattle, which has hosted some of the country’s largest racial justice protests, have canceled time off for officers. seattletimes.com

D&D Daily Crime Analysis: Weekend Shootings & Deaths Remain High
Nearly 3,000 Shootings & 700 Deaths Recorded Since July 4th Weekend

158 shootings, 43 killed in 20 Major U.S. Cities from Oct. 23-25

The D&D Daily continued to analyze violent crime in 20 major cities, including those in the DOJ's 'Operation Legend,' where they've made over 1,057+ arrests since its onset in July.

The study showed 158 shootings and 43 killings from Friday through Sunday, with an average of
52.7 shootings and 14.3 killings per day. Shooting deaths remain high since last week, when we saw the most since the July 4th Holiday weekend.

As the data shows, July Fourth weekend remains a high point for deadly violence this summer, with 233 shootings and 70 killings in over 30 cities (big and small throughout the U.S.) over just two days during that holiday weekend, averaging 116.5 shootings per day and 35 killings per day.

Below is a weekly breakdown of violence in big cities throughout the summer & fall.

Does this momentum continue up to the election?

In Case You Missed It
D&D Daily Survey: Election Violence & Protests

How are you preparing?
Given the current elective divisiveness coupled with the nation reeling from protests, rioting, and looting since George Floyd's death in Minneapolis and the COVID-19 lockdowns, restrictions and social isolation, law enforcement and intelligence agencies across the nation are preparing for protests and violence throughout the election process. Especially given the long, drawn out mail-in ballots that will reportedly take up to a week or more to determine the winner.

That being said, we wanted to provide the community with a public survey/benchmark that can be shared and hopefully provide value with your individual review and preparation process.

Nation Reaching 'Dangerous Tipping Point'
US hits highest 7-day average of coronavirus cases since the pandemic began
The latest surge of Covid-19 infections has pushed the seven-day average of new daily cases to
heights not seen since the pandemic began.

The seven-day
average of new cases hit 68,767 on Sunday, topping the previous peak of 67,293 reported on July 22. The two highest single days of new cases were Friday and Saturday, with more than 83,000 new cases added each day.

Health experts say the resurgence of cases that they had warned would strike in the fall and winter is here, and that it could be the worst the US has seen so far. Surging numbers in the US -- where there have been a total of more than 8.6 million infections and 225,230 people have died -- show the nation is at a
"dangerous tipping point," former US Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb told CBS News on Sunday.

"We're entering what's going to be the
steep slope of the curve, of the epidemic curve," Gottlieb told CBS's Margaret Brennan on "Face the Nation."

Many epidemiologists and public health officials anticipated a surge in new coronavirus infections this fall as cooler temperatures pushed Americans indoors and behaviors changed with the seasons.
But this increase in new cases is coming sooner than some expected. cnn.com  wsj.com

New U.S. Cases Stay Above 60,000
The number of those hospitalized with Covid-19 in the U.S. was 41,753 on Sunday. That was down from 41,882 a day earlier but the fifth day in a row the figure surpassed 40,000, which it hadn’t previously done since Aug. 21.

The 340 U.S. deaths reported Sunday represented the lowest one-day tally since Oct. 12, when 317 people were reported dead. Overall, the U.S. has reported 225,230 deaths from the coronavirus, according to Johns Hopkins data. wsj.com

2nd Shutdown Could Be 'Nail in the Coffin' for Businesses
Business owners worried about possibility of more shutdowns as cases rise
With a new record of daily coronavirus cases in Ohio set Saturday at 2,800,
many business owners are concerned about what's to come. Just last week, Governor Mike DeWine said he is not ruling out the possibility of more closures or shutdowns.

Saturday was a great day for business for many bars and restaurants as the Buckeyes conquered Nebraska. But, for many business owners, a boom in business is hard to come by these days.

"Between this and our other place, Antiques on High, we're
between 30 and 50 percent down," said Collin Castor, the Co-Founder of Seventh Son Brewing. That's from the shutdown this spring and continued regulations.

Castor says
another wave of closures could prove devastating. "I think it would be kind of the nail in the coffin for a lot of us, unfortunately." Across town in Clintonville, a beloved restaurant's sales are down between 60 and 70-percent. abc6onyourside.com

COVID's Impact on Seasonal Hiring
The Big Shift in Retail Jobs

"The pandemic has thrown typical holiday hiring patterns off"

In-store hiring is down as more roles have shifted to logistics, e-commerce and novel positions that have emerged as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Perhaps more surprising,
job-seeker interest is also down, even though unemployment is higher than it's been in years.

It's still uncertain exactly how the
COVID-19 pandemic will reshape holiday hiring, but it seems that the public health crisis is exacerbating a trend that was already in motion: Online shopping is becoming a larger share of the retail experience, causing seasonal hiring to move from stores to warehouses and call centers.

Retailers, particularly those with a strong online shopping infrastructure, are anticipating high demand but are
struggling to figure out how many hires will be made to accommodate holiday sales."

Job postings on Indeed were down 11 percent in late September, when seasonal hiring should be picking up.

There's
also been a shift this year from temporary seasonal jobs to regular year-round full- or part-time positions, falling from 2019 when 54 percent of seasonal jobs were temporary to 37 percent this year. Boosting permanent headcount as they recover from the initial coronavirus shock," Konkel said.

McDonald's Discrimination Lawsuit
McDonald’s seeks dismissal of racial discrimination lawsuit by former franchisees

McDonald’s is asking a judge to dismiss a racial discrimination lawsuit filed by 52 former franchisees

McDonald’s on Friday asked a judge to dismiss the racial discrimination lawsuit filed by former franchisees,
arguing that it wants every operator in its system to thrive.

The company also said that the complaint from
52 Black plaintiffs relies on “vague and conclusory allegations” and fails to provide viable claims of intentional race discrimination, breach of contract and fraud.

McDonald’s also said that the statutes of limitations for such claims has expired, based on when the operators exited the franchise. The statute of limitations in Illinois, where the suit was filed, for discrimination during a contract is only four years.

In September, the former franchisees
alleged that the fast-food giant denied them the same opportunities as White operators and steered Black franchisees to low-income neighborhoods, where they had higher security and insurance expenses and lower sales.

The
plaintiffs say their losses are $4 million to $5 million per location on average, after subtracting restaurants’ costs from missed revenue over the years active. cnbc.com

One Pandemic Success Story
Home Depot Won a Lot of Customers During the Pandemic
 - The Trick Is Keeping Them

'It was like Black Friday every day'

Home Depot Inc. reacted to the rapid spread of Covid-19 in the U.S. by canceling annual sales events and pulling many marked-down goods off the shelves to keep crowds away from stores. But rather than a drop in traffic, amid lockdowns and social distancing,
customers began flocking to its physical and online stores, spending stay-at-home savings and government stimulus checks on home-improvement projects.

In August, the Atlanta-based company posted its strongest quarterly sales growth in nearly 20 years, with May-to-July revenue up 23% to $38.1 billion, compared with the same period in 2019.

The
digital technology needed to meet that rush in demand fell to Matt Carey, Home Depot’s chief information officer. Mr. Carey and his team quickly spun out mobile apps for curbside-pickup services and real-time inventory-tracking software, among other tools. “It was like Black Friday every day,” he says about the unexpected run. wsj.com

COVID-19 Driving Malware Infections
Infected IoT device numbers grow 100% in a year
Internet of Things (IoT) devices are now responsible for
32.72% of all infections observed in mobile networks, up from 16.17% in 2019, according to a new Nokia Threat Intelligence Report 2020. This trend lines up with the growing number of IoT devices that are now connected to mobile networks, says Nokia's Threat Intelligence Lab.

With the widespread proliferation of IoT devices, it is to be expected that the number of IoT infections will grow dramatically.

Covid-19 caused a surge in mobile malware infections
In 2020, the average monthly infection rate in mobile networks was 0.23%. In February and March, however, the monthly mobile infection rate increased by almost 30% over the previous months, largely due to the significant escalation of cyber security incidents related to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Info-stealers and spyware are on the rise
There is a strong trend toward info-stealers and mobile spyware, which make up 35.76% of all Android infections.

Trojans are now the malware of choice
The share of malware detected as Trojans jumped to 74% from just 34% in 2019, largely because the exceptional circumstance of this year have made phishing campaigns the best way to delivery malware directly to users. The relative share of worms and viruses has decreased in 2020.

Dirk Schrader, Global Vice President at New Net Technologies (NNT), says, “It’s no surprise that IoT devices are the crown jewels for cybercriminals.
Businesses around the world are transforming their processes, their production lines using digitalized assets. Having control over these assets means that a cybercriminal’s hand is – literally – at the main switch of a digitally transformed company. The danger of being shut down almost completely is the reason why companies are more likely to pay even higher ransoms." securitymagazine.com

Retail, Hospitality and Travel Hit by 64 Billion Credential Stuffing Attacks
Over 60% of credential stuffing attacks detected over the past two years have been targeted at retail, travel and hospitality businesses, according to security vendor Akamai’s latest report, Loyalty for Sale.

During the period July 1 2018 to June 30 2020, it detected over 100 billion credential stuffing attempts. Almost 64 billion of these were aimed at cracking open user accounts in the retail, travel and hospitality sectors. Further, retail accounted for the vast majority (90%+) of the attacks aimed at these verticals.

Such attacks remain popular given the continuous surge of breached log-ins onto underground sites and the potentially rich pickings to be found inside cracked accounts.

“Criminals are not picky — anything that can be accessed can be used in some way,” said Steve Ragan, Akamai security researcher and report author. “This is why credential stuffing has become so popular over the past few years. These days, retail and loyalty profiles contain a smorgasbord of personal information, and in some cases financial information too. All of this data can be collected, sold and traded, or even compiled for extensive profiles that can later be used for crimes such as identity theft.” infosecurity-magazine.com


Ransomware trends in Q3: a new attack every day
Digital Shadows released its quarterly research report focusing on the latest trends in ransomware. Unfortunately, for vulnerable organizations everywhere, Digital Shadows Photon Research team found that
ransomware as a market and community on the dark web has expanded since Q2.

New variants of ransomware, as well as data leak sites (which
host and/or advertise stolen information), are popping up every week, including some operated by the notorious Conti ransomware operators. These are the same folks who are suspected to be responsible for Ryuk malware.

A disturbing dimension of this trend is the
rise of these data leak sites. While a few major players still dominate market share, the explosion in alternatives – including the Conti-affiliated Netwalker blog, which quickly captured 17% of the market, making it the second most popular blog – indicates an active community growing in a lucrative business.

In the second quarter of 2020, Maze, DoppelPaymer, and Sodinokibi seemed to rule the ransomware scene with
reports of ransomware attacks every day. securitymagazine.com

Controlling How Tech Giants Use Data
Privacy ballot measure in California could have ripple effect across the U.S.
California enacted the country's toughest privacy law in 2018, but the Golden State isn't done considering new privacy regulations. Voters are now weighing a proposition that supporters say will give you more control over how tech giants use your data.

Like 2018's California Consumer Privacy Act, the new ballot proposition could prompt companies to change privacy policies across the board. Called the California Privacy Rights Act, the proposition could also revive efforts to pass similar bills in statehouses across the country.

At issue is whether the privacy protections will be effective, and whether the potential costs of running a new state agency, which the initiative calls for, are worth it at a time when the state's budget is threatened by the coronavirus pandemic. Voters will also sort through the reasons why some privacy advocates don't love the law. cnet.com

2020: The Year Everyone Became an IT Employee
The pandemic has rendered IT roles more demanding and more important than ever before. And every employee has essentially become an extension of the IT team.

Consider an IT admin that previously supported one office with 50 employees. Today, that admin is supporting the same 50 employees spread across as many locations, using different networks and a wide variety of (mostly unsecured) devices. Troubleshooting is infinitely more challenging in this paradigm and, while the volume of IT work has exploded, the size of most teams remains unchanged. informationweek.com

34K COVID-Related Fraud Incidents
Online shoppers have lost millions to fraud in 2020
Since the beginning of the year, Americans have made
91,808 COVID-19-related reports to the Federal Trade Commission—34,000 of which were related to online shopping alone. Covid-related fraud has already robbed a cumulative $16 million from unsuspecting Americans, says the FTC’s most up-to-date report. That’s because so many people are shopping online at once and distracted from their normal routines, says cyber security expert and CyberScout founder Adam Levin.

Here are six essential tools for anyone who shops online.

1. Anti-Malware Software
You can prevent e-skimming with powerful anti-malware software like MalwareBytes Premium Multi-Device. This program runs 24/7, scanning your system for anything suspicious and stonewalling any potential malware invasions in real time.

2. A Password Manager
Logging into each account for each of your favorite online stores requires one key talent: remembering your password. Sorry to bust your bubble, but Levin says it’s a bad idea and a big risk to use the same or similar passwords everywhere.

3. Strong Security Software
Strong security software is a must for preventing viruses, ransomware and malware attacks while you’re jumping from one online store to another, snapping up sales. You might not even know you’re on a malicious website, but they can secretly steal your personal information or even overtake your entire device, according to software leader Norton.

4. A VPN - 5. A Pop Up Ad Blocker - 6. A Mobile Security App yahoo.com

Using the Web to Reinvent Black Friday During the Pandemic
How retailers are reinventing the Black Friday experience during COVID-19
Retailers are doing their best to safely draw in customers during the 2020 holiday shopping season by expanding the length of time to cash in on
online doorbuster deals and offering curbside pickup and delivery. Local businesses also are offering innovative shopping promotions, including pre-booked shopping times and free gifts.

If you were waiting until November to start your holiday shopping locally or at big-box retailers, experts say you're already behind. That's right, the holiday shopping creep has now inched back into October. In fact, it got started before Halloween.

Since we're still in the midst of the pandemic, national and local retailers have adopted
alternative strategies for holiday shopping during the coronavirus to keep both shoppers and employees safe. courier-journal.com

Education is a broad term usually defined by an individual as a singular focus with an end result that oftentimes stagnates the brain and limits horizons. Reaching milestones is incredibly important, but keeping your curiosity and wonderment is the key to reaching beyond. No singular degree or certification will bring you the success - it merely opens the door to more learning and the realization that if you don't know something, you go find someone who does and learn it from them.  

Just a Thought,
Gus
