Strengthen Retail Security & Enhance Workplace Safety with
Off-Duty Law Enforcement
Discover how off-duty law
enforcement enhances safety and deters crime while protecting employees
and assets.
Retailers
are under more pressure than ever to prevent theft, ensure employee
safety and maintain business continuity across stores. Criminal
activities are on the rise, and they can severely disrupt operations,
leading to financial losses and a tarnished reputation. Workplace
security not only safeguards assets and sensitive information but also
protects employees and visitors, fostering a safe and productive
environment.
Hiring
off-duty law enforcement is a proven way to level up your retail
security strategy. Off-duty personnel are uniquely positioned to deter
criminal activities, respond swiftly in emergencies and provide an added
layer of protection. By integrating off-duty law enforcement into your
security strategy, you can create a safer, more secure workplace
environment.
Protos Security's workplace security blog explores ways that
off-duty law enforcement can benefit retailers and increase workplace
safety.

The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Industry Leaders Say Combatting ORC
Act Would be a 'Game-Changer'
New federal bill aims to combat cargo theft, Iowa impacted by the crime
It’s a crime most of us never see, but we all pay for it. Cargo theft
cases are rising across the nation, and Senator Chuck Grassley wants to
put a stop to it. “Weak DAs and weak judges won’t lock these people
up, and that’s why we’ve seen this crime explode,” said Senator
Marsha Blackburn, (R-Tennessee) on Capitol Hill.
Cargo
theft was the focus of a hearing at the U.S. Senate Committee on the
Judiciary on Tuesday, July 15. Senator Grassley (R-Iowa) and Senator
Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nevada) reintroduced bipartisan legislation
earlier this year to crack down on robberies and retail theft.
The Combatting Organized Retail Crime Act
(CORCA) of 2025 would establish a coordinated multi-agency response.
The legislation proposes a plan to give Homeland Security new tools to
track, investigate, and recover stolen freight. Some experts say the
crime costs billions, and it hits everything from electronics to
groceries before they reach store shelves.
According to the FBI, cargo theft is stealing goods, chattel, money, or
baggage from a commercial freight shipment moving in commerce, and it's
spreading coast to coast. It's happening in Texas, Florida, Illinois,
California and even in Iowa.
"It has just gotten far more widespread and far more sophisticated.
So, years ago, it could be our driver shows up to delivery and a few
pallets are missing or short, and you work that out with the customer,”
Stephenson said. “Now, it can be entire loads are gone. Very brazen.”
Brenda Neville, President and CEO of the Iowa Motor Truck Association,
said the data for cargo thefts is staggering. She added that strategic
cargo theft is up about 1500% since the first quarter of 2021.
That’s what the Combatting Organized Retail Crime Act of 2025 aims to
change. “This bill would be a gamechanger,” Summer Stephan, San
Diego County's District Attorney, said at the July hearing.

Is Prop 36 Curbing Retail Theft in
California?
San Diego’s CARRT meeting reviews Prop 36’s crime impact
San Diego held the state’s first-ever Californians Against Retail and
Residential Theft (CARRT) meeting on Monday, providing an update on
how Proposition 36 has helped against retail and residential crimes.
Proposition 36 passed with 67 percent of the vote in November 2024.
According to data shared from San Diego County District Attorney Summer
Stephan, since its implementation, the county has charged 2,100 cases
under Proposition 36. Of those, 665 are for repeat offender
theft-related crimes, and 1,435 are for drug possession with mandated
treatment.
“There’s always more to be done, but I’m very excited as to where we
are; we’ve charged close to 700 habitual offenders,” Stephan said. “These
are people that we couldn’t get to before.”
The shared data shows that over the last 10 years, shoplifting has
increased by more than 35 percent statewide.
Stephan said the problem arose when Proposition 47 passed, allowing
loopholes so thieves could steal anything as long as it was under $950,
but since the implementation of Prop 36, she’s already seen the changes.
“I’m walking stores and they are showing me where products have been
unlocked,” she added. “I see smiles on the faces of employees because
now they call police, and police arrive because there’s actually
something they can do.”
Stephan said addictions and drugs are the main contributors to retail
theft, and now 97 percent of drug offenders are accepting
treatments.
“That was unheard of before Prop 36,” Stephan said.

100+ Shopping Centers in Australia
Make Retail Crime Push
Shopping centres launch national push against rising retail crime
Crime Stoppers Australia (CSA) is
partnering with shopping centres across Australia to tackle rising
retail theft and promote protecting staff, customers, and business
operations.
A new campaign will target more than 100 shopping centres, running
from September to October 2025 during the Spring school holidays and
January 2026 for the back-to-school period. According to CSA chair
Ian Stewart, the campaign unites shopping centres, staff, and customers
in keeping communities safe.
“Shopping centres are part of the heartbeat of our communities –
and everyone who walks through their doors has the power to help keep
them safe. Everyone who walks through their doors has the power to help
keep them safe,” he explained.
“Increasing our presence in shopping centres will enable us to
bring greater awareness to the importance of community intelligence and
to encourage people to contact Crime Stoppers.”
Retail theft in Australia is surging, outpacing other types of crime,
according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. In 2024, there were
595,660 victims, the highest number in 21 years, with
nearly half of all incidents (45 per cent)
occurring in retail settings, and Victoria experienced a
29 per cent increase in store theft.
Australian Retail Association CEO Chris Rodwell described the situation
as a “full-scale retail crime crisis” and emphasised the impact
on employees, customers, and businesses.

After a wave of horrific shootings, gun violence trends put recent

Training Associates as LP Allies
How frontline employees are becoming
the first line of defense against shrink
By
the D&D Daily staff
With fewer retailers employing large, dedicated loss prevention teams,
many companies are turning to a resource already inside the store —
their associates. The shift reflects a broader trend in retail:
prevention is increasingly about culture, training, and engagement, not
just enforcement.
For decades, loss prevention was often seen as a specialized function,
separate from sales and customer service. But as retailers adapt to
labor constraints and changing shopper behaviors, they are looking to
make every employee a partner in protecting assets. That doesn’t mean
turning cashiers or floor staff into security officers. Instead, it’s
about equipping them with awareness skills, customer engagement
strategies, and clear communication channels.
One common training approach is teaching associates how to use
“friendly engagement” as a deterrent. Greeting customers promptly,
offering assistance, and checking in regularly not only improve the
shopping experience but also reduce opportunities for theft or return
fraud. Associates are also encouraged to recognize and report red flags
— such as unusual return activity or merchandise left in odd places —
without directly intervening.
Technology is playing a role as well. Many retailers now integrate
training modules into handheld devices or e-learning platforms, making
LP education an ongoing part of employee development rather than a
one-time orientation. Short, scenario-based lessons help staff practice
responses to real-world situations, from misplaced inventory to policy
abuse, in a controlled and supportive setting.
Industry experts note that this strategy has a dual benefit: it
strengthens loss prevention while also improving overall store
operations. Employees who feel empowered to protect merchandise are
often more confident in assisting customers, keeping shelves organized,
and communicating with managers about potential issues.
The result is a more proactive culture of awareness that doesn’t rely
solely on enforcement or technology. As retailers continue to
navigate staffing shortages and evolving shopper expectations, training
associates as LP allies may prove to be one of the most effective — and
sustainable — strategies available.
Retail's Tariff Tightrope About to Get
Trickier
Managing tariff impact gets tougher as the holidays approach
Lower-income households are
especially worried about employment and higher prices — and prices are
indeed rising.
Through most of 2025, retailers and brands have told investors they
will bump up prices where they can in order to mitigate the fallout from
tariffs. As consumers contend with fresh economic challenges — and
as the holidays draw nearer — this already intricate balance of
protecting margins and maintaining demand is getting more fraught.
In May, Target CEO Brian Cornell called price increases a “last
resort.” In their latest calls with analysts, executives from the
major off-price companies said they’re keeping a sharp eye out for what
mainstream retailers do in order to raise prices yet maintain their
value advantage. Last month, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said the retail
giant is “keeping our prices as low as we can for as long as we can.”
There’s a reason to be wary. Tariff-related price increases and a
softening employment picture have undermined consumer confidence and, in
turn, spending, according to a report last week from Moody’s
Ratings. In July, for example, real personal consumption expenditures
rose about 2.2% year over year, quite a bit slower than the 3%-plus
rates of late 2024, per that report. In August, sales in the mostly
discretionary categories covered by Retail Dive rose a healthy 5.5%, but
volumes barely budged or even fell.
“We expect US consumer spending growth to remain lackluster through
2025, and for its recovery, likely beginning in late 2026, to be
uneven across income groups and spending categories,” Moody’s Ratings
analysts led by Claire Li wrote.

Amazon will close all 19 Amazon
Fresh grocery stores in the UK, converting five of them to Whole Foods
Markets. The decision follows a review of business growth opportunities,
with a focus on enhancing its online grocery services.
Amazon has announced its decision to close all 19 of its Amazon Fresh
convenience grocery stores in the United Kingdom, less than five
years after it entered the market.
Five of those grocery stores would be converted to the Whole Foods
Markets brand, a US high-end supermarket chain that specialises in
organic and natural foods, which was acquired by Amazon in 2017.
Amazon Fresh pioneered "walk-out" technology in Britain, enabling
customers to skip the checkout line when they picked up groceries,
including its own "by Amazon" brand, Reuters reported.

Independent study highlights
stronger legal outcomes and safer stores when ALTO supports retail
crime cases
The Loss
Prevention Research Council (LPRC) has released the results of
its latest independent analysis examining
ALTO's impact on
post-incident case outcomes across U.S. retailers. The findings
confirm that case follow-through delivers stronger deterrence and
safer environments for teams and customers.
According to the study, retail crime cases supported by
ALTO produced
significantly stronger legal outcomes compared to cases without ALTO
involvement:
-
2.5× more time under legal custody
-
1.8× longer probation sentences
-
7.4× more restitution awarded to retailers and other businesses
-
Over 40% decrease in unfavorable outcomes such as dismissals and
decline prosecutions

The study highlights the critical role of legal consequences in
reducing repeat offenses. Without meaningful follow-through,
offenders often cycle back into stores, increasing risks for
employees, customers, and communities. ALTO notes that ensuring
accountability through longer custody, probation, and restitution
not only disrupts this cycle but also improves recovery for
victimized retailers.
"Research shows that for consequences to deter crime, they must be
swift, certain, and severe. ALTO's support reduced dismissals and
increased penalties, boosting both the certainty and severity of
legal outcomes. Additionally, supervision or incarceration limits
offenders' opportunities to reoffend," said Cory Lowe, PhD, Director
of Research at LPRC.
The analysis comes at a time when many retailers and businesses are
balancing investments in deterrence and preventive technologies with
the need for stronger case resolution. The LPRC's findings suggest
that prosecution support and legal advocacy can play a decisive role
in closing the gap between incidents and outcomes.
As retailers continue to seek scalable solutions to organized and
repeat theft, this latest data provides measurable evidence that
consistent follow-through drives real impact—both in holding
offenders accountable and in improving the safety of stores
nationwide.

Nearly Half of 'Material' Breaches Go
Unreported
Many ‘material’ cybersecurity breaches go unreported: VikingCloud
The research also found that
cyberattacks have escalated both in frequency and severity in the past
year, with AI serving as a primary driver behind the surge.
Nearly half (48%) of cybersecurity leaders didn’t report a “material”
cybersecurity incident to their executive leadership or board of
directors in the past year, according to the results of a survey
conducted by cybersecurity firm VikingCloud.
The leading reasons cited were worry over punitive rather than
constructive responses from leadership and the board (40%), and fear
of financial or reputational harm if the incident were made public or
resulted in regulatory consequences (44%), VikingCloud said in a recent
report on the findings.
“If you’re in a leadership position, you need to find out if this is
happening in your company,” Jon Marler, “cybersecurity evangelist” at
VikingCloud, said in an interview. “I’m not saying, ‘Go on a witch
hunt.’ Look at it from the perspective of fostering a culture of
accountability and creating a way for people to disclose things that
doesn’t make them afraid of losing their job, especially right now with
how hard it is to find a new job in IT and technology.”
It was not clear to what extent, if any, that surveyed companies have
broken any cybersecurity laws by failing to report breaches.
The growing patchwork of cybersecurity breach notification
requirements in the U.S. includes the Securities and Exchange
Commission’s rule mandating that public companies disclose “material”
incidents within four days of a materiality determination.

Cyberattack Business Impact
Jaguar Land Rover to extend production pause into October following
cyberattack
Meanwhile, Stellantis said hackers
gained access to some customer information in a third-party data breach.
Jaguar Land Rover said it will extend a delay at its production
facilities until Oct. 1, weeks after a cyberattack forced the luxury
automaker to pause operations.
The U.K.-based company said the decision to extend the delay will “give
clarity for the coming week,” as it prepares for the phased restart of
production, according to
a statement posted Tuesday on its corporate website.
“Our teams continue to work around-the-clock alongside cybersecurity
specialists, the [National Cyber Security Centre] and law
enforcement to ensure we restart in a safe and secure manner,” the
company said in the statement.
The automaker initially disclosed the attack on Sept. 2, after a
threat group gained access to company data and forced security teams to
shut down certain systems. The company said the attack severely
disrupted production, and last week said it
would extend the pause until Sept. 24, followed by a careful, phased
resumption of operations.

Accessing Company Cloud Backups
SonicWall customers warned about brute force attacks against cloud
backup service
Hackers have gained access to key
information that could help exploit firewalls.
Hackers are conducting brute force attacks against the MySonicWall.com
portal in order to access the company’s cloud backup service for
firewalls, SonicWall and federal authorities warned in advisories
released Monday.
SonicWall said its investigation found that hackers gained access to
5% of backup firewall preference files. The company warned that
while credentials inside the files were encrypted, the files contained
other information that could help attackers exploit the firewall,
according to the advisory.
Firewall configuration files contain sensitive information, including
user, group DNS and log settings. Researchers said that nation-state
hackers and ransomware groups previously have exploited such information
to conduct subsequent attacks.

Stress Fueling Cart Abandonment?
Accenture: Holiday stress can lead to cart abandonment
The stress of the holiday season is expected to have an impact on
consumers’ purchasing decisions.
More than eight-in-10 (84%) consumers report that purchasing holiday
gifts can be so overwhelming and frustrating that they abandon their
shopping carts entirely as a result, according to the latest Holiday
Survey from IT management and consulting firm Accenture. That figure
rises among younger generations, with 89% Gen Z and 91% millennials
reporting they are likely to walk away from holiday gift purchases.
At the start of 2024, Accenture’s Consumer Pulse Survey found that just
under three quarters (74%) of consumers reported walking away from
purchases because they felt overwhelmed, showing that stress grows
during the holiday season.
Concern over not buying the perfect holiday gift is a contributing
factor to “shopper stress," according to Accenture's survey.
Three-quarters (75%) of shoppers say they are stressed about making
the right decisions, and a similar number (73%) are worried they
will regret their choice later.
“While holiday season is known to be a time for joy and celebration, it
can also be a time of heightened stress. Add the pressure of finding the
perfect gift for friends and loved ones, and it can all feel
overwhelming,” said Jill Standish, Accenture’s global retail lead. “For
retailers, that overwhelm could harm holiday sales, with shoppers
prepared to abandon their shopping basket completely. And while this is
when many retailers and brands double down on advertising and
promotional campaigns to win share of the festive spend, they must pay
even closer attention to customer data and use the insights to lighten
the decision-making workload of the holiday shopper.”
When it comes to deciding where and how to shop, almost half (45%) of
consumers say they will visit a store to see and assess products in
person when faced with too much information while holiday shopping.
Forty-eight percent seek recommendations from friends and family, while
one-in-five plan to use AI-powered conversational assistants such as
ChatGPT or Claude. One third (34%) of consumers will search on social
media for product information to combat information overload.

AI Payment Processing
Survey: Companies to turn to AI for online checkout processing
Online checkout abandonment is becoming a major issue for retailers,
but emerging technology could help remedy the problem.
One-in-four U.S. executives report losing more than $1 million
annually at online checkout, reveals a new survey conducted by
Talker Research on behalf of global payments platform Spreedly The most
common causes of failed checkouts are customer abandonment (29%) and
unsupported payment methods (28%).
In an effort to combat losses, 83% of executives believe that by
2027, most payments will be initiated, optimized, or completed by
artificial intelligence. However, respondents cited several
potential risks associated with AI-led payments, including losing
transparency about who the customer is (23%), compliance and regulatory
risk (21%) and false positives leading to lost revenue (20%).
Fifteen percent of those surveyed said they did not have any concerns
about AI's role in future payment processing. Millennial executives
are more optimistic about AI's role in payments, while Gen Z leaders
cite consumer trust and disintermediation as top concerns.

Kenosha County, WI: Cartel retail theft ring; 4 in custody, 4 deported
The
Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office said eight people with ties to a Mexican
cartel have been arrested in connection to an organized retail theft
ring that investigators believe is responsible for more than $100
million in annual losses nationwide. Detectives with the Kenosha
Drug Operations Group (KDOG) began working with Oak Brook, Illinois,
police in March 2025 after Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) linked suspects to the cartel.
The sheriff’s office said on April 10, deputies stopped several members
in Kenosha County and found more than $21,000 in stolen merchandise from
Madison. In May, investigators served warrants at a Kenosha apartment
and a storage unit, recovering more than $120,000 worth of stolen
property. Four of the suspects – Gonzalez-Medrano, Perez-Sanchez, Gomez,
and Salas-Ramirez – posted bonds up to $25,000 but were taken into
custody by ICE and deported to Mexico. All four now have fully
extraditable warrants if they return to the United States. The remaining
suspects are being held in the Kenosha County Jail. Officials said the
investigation involved cooperation from KDOG, HSI offices in Milwaukee
and Houston, ICE and multiple agencies in Illinois and Texas.
