The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Police Use Tech to Battle Theft
A number of forces have started using live
facial recognition technology, while others track repeat offenders using
electronic GPS ankle tags.
Is there a way of stopping repeat shoplifting?
Persistent shoplifters are often caught in a cycle of police, courts and
prison, says a charity which is calling for more joined up support to be
made available. Revolving Doors says homelessness, poor mental health
and poverty are often driving this repeat offending.
Police forces in England and Wales recorded 502,011 shoplifting
offences in 2025-26, a 5% drop on the year before but higher than
pre-pandemic levels. The Home Office says 23% of offences now lead
to a charge, meaning more criminals are facing consequences.
A recent BBC investigation found 270 shoplifters were linked to more
than 28,000 offences between 2020-21 and 2025-26.
Retailers, including the Co-op, have been calling on the government
to do more to tackle prolific offenders, including making more use
of employment and rehabilitation programmes. The government also says a
large number of shop thefts are fuelled by repeat offenders stealing
to fund their addictions.
About one in five shoplifting offences in 2025-26 have led to a
charge or summons. However, 285,667 reported crimes remain open
cases, or they have been closed without any action being taken.
Policing Minister Sarah Jones said: "For too long, retail crime was
dismissed as 'low-level', but we have been investing in more
neighbourhood policing and working with police to ensure it's treated as
the crime it is.
The government says it is also exploring other ways of tackling
prolific shoplifting - in addition to prison sentences and drug
treatment - including court orders preventing offenders from visiting
certain shops or areas.
A number of forces have started using live
facial recognition technology, while in Sussex some repeat offenders are
now monitored using electronic GPS ankle tags. Croydon could
become the first borough in London to tag and track prolific
shoplifters.
Assistant Chief Constable of Merseyside Police Alex Goss, who is the
National Police Chiefs' Council lead for retail crime, said: "It is
important to recognise the significant progress that has been made."
He said: "The strategy is delivering real results by bringing
together policing, retailers, government and industry partners to
strengthen information sharing, improve offender management, reduce
violence against retail workers and develop more effective ways of
reporting and investigating retail crime."

New Tech to Fight an Old School Crime
Police target cargo thieves on trains in a first-of-its-kind national
blitz. Here's how it worked.
Train robberies may be a relic of the Old West, but cargo theft is
still a big business — and consumers end up paying the price.
 The
Department of Homeland Security estimates cargo theft costs the U.S.
between $15 billion to $35 billion a year. In 2025, the FBI says,
reported cargo theft losses in the U.S. and Canada reached nearly $725
million, up 60 percent from 2024.
Now, law enforcement agencies are stepping up efforts to curb the
criminal enterprise that can ultimately cost consumers. When
manufacturers lose large loads of goods to theft, they often raise
prices, forcing consumers to pay more on the back end.
In a first-of-its-kind national blitz shown exclusively to CBS News,
federal agents, railroad police and law enforcement in more than two
dozen states hit the tracks and highways on the same night, using
infrared drone cameras to track down thieves targeting cargo trains.
"It's like a third eye in the sky, you know, so it helps us out. It
gives us an advantage," Commander Michael Ware, who leads the Cook
County Sheriff's Police Organized Retail Crime and Cargo Theft Task
Force, told CBS News national consumer correspondent Ash-har Quraishi
during a ride-along for an operation in Chicago. Illinois now ranks
third in the nation for cargo theft, behind only California and Texas,
according to Verisk Cargonet.
A heads up about suspicious activity from law enforcement partners
across the country, like the California Highway Patrol and L.A. County,
has helped officers prepare.
Infrared drone technology picks up heat
signatures along train tracks and in rail yards. A drone
operator can see white silhouettes moving on tracks and in cargo cars,
and communicates the information to officers on the ground.
"People were being looted and the numbers were staggering and the
point that we had driven home to us almost immediately, it was highly
organized," he said.
With the holidays coming, Ware says what's stolen off the trains is a
preview of where you'll see a price increase.

Dollar General's 'Surgical Approach'
to Fighting Theft
Dollar General facing closure of discount store due to repeated thefts
after losing hundreds of thousands of dollars
 Employees
say the thefts are rampant and there are repeat offenders who often
steal using bins or by exiting the back door. Erin McCauley told WESH: “If
ten people walk in, six people are stealing.”
The store has put an alarm on the back door to sound when thieves try to
flee. However, Erin claims that employees are “not allowed to do
anything,” with the company telling its workers not to get involved.
Store workers also asked police to assist them by patrolling parking
lots but this has not happened yet. A city official called the local
area a “food desert” indicating the store is a staple in the
community.
While some competitors have opted for locked shelves, Dollar General has
taken a more radical approach. Their strategy is SKU rationalization,
removing lower-volume items or high-shrink items, and instead focusing
on faster-selling items.
They also use AI analytics to identify high-theft stores. CEO
Todd Vasos said: “As we go forward, the team is looking at continued SKU
rationalization, albeit probably more surgical in nature as we move
forward.
“We’re already implementing some test and learns even in the back half
of this year around lower-volume store-type planograms, taking a
substantial amount of SKUs out of the mix where it may not be as
productive."

Cannabis Stores & Violence Concerns
Winnipeg, MB, Canada: Cannabis retailers concerned about minimum
staffing requirements at stores
Manitoba is considering new cannabis-store safety measures that would
allow retailers to remove window coverings and could require a minimum
number of employees to work during higher-risk hours.
The proposed amendments to the Liquor, Gaming and Cannabis Control Act
were introduced by the provincial government earlier this week as part
of an effort to address safety concerns at cannabis stores.
Under the proposed legislation, the Liquor, Gaming and Cannabis
Authority of Manitoba (LGCA) would have the power to establish
mandatory minimum staffing levels during certain hours, ensuring workers
are not alone when the risk of violence is higher. The province is
also proposing to remove the requirement for cannabis retailers to cover
their storefront windows.

New Theft Hotbed in SF
San Francisco REI Store A Hotbed Of Retail Theft As 5 New Arrests
Announced
One REI store in San Francisco is at the center of numerous retail
thefts resulting in at least eight arrests in recent months,
police said.
The San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) on Tuesday announced five
arrests connected to repeated thefts at the REI store on Brannon Street.
The five people arrested in September were allegedly responsible for a
total of $19,000 in stolen merchandise.
The arrests follow three other arrests announced in August for thefts at
the same location. The store is such a hotbed of theft, the SFPD
Organized Retail Crime (ORC) Task Force has been working with REI
representatives since May to apprehend “multiple habitual thieves
working independently.”

Another Retail Predicament
Target denies cooperating with ICE. Here’s why that may not matter.
Whether they own or lease store
property, retailers probably need formal policies about whether law
enforcement agencies can establish operational staging areas in their
parking lots.
 Target
was thrust into the national spotlight last week after U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement agents shot a man in the Bronx, not far from one
of its stores. The retailer stated it has no formal ties to the
agency after New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez accused it
of letting ICE set up operations in its parking lot.
The situation highlights a predicament for retailers, whether they are
property owners or tenants, at a time of elevated immigration
enforcement.
In a Thursday statement condemning the shooting, Ocasio-Cortez added a
demand that Target “stop offering their Bronx properties as private
staging sites for ICE, in compliance with requests from New York
officials.”
But in an email to Retail Dive on Friday, the retailer denied this,
stating, “Target has no cooperative agreements with ICE or any other
immigration enforcement agency.” A Target spokesperson said she was
unaware of any operational staging area set up by ICE at its Marble Hill
shopping center location, which is close to the site of the shooting.
Target is not disputing what the officials describe in their letter, but
the company has no evidence of a large ICE staging area established
there, and has not agreed to host such an area, the spokesperson
said. ICE did not immediately respond to questions about its use of the
Target parking lot.
Target doesn’t have an agreement with ICE, but also cannot legally
interfere with law enforcement activity, the spokesperson said by
phone. When asked whether the retailer or store management would request
that ICE or any law enforcement agency not use its parking lot for
operational purposes, the spokesperson declined to comment.

New AI Firing Law
AI Can’t Fire You in California Without a Human
Under SB 947, a manager must back up
any AI-driven firing or discipline with other evidence, such as
performance reviews.
California employers will soon need a person to stand behind any
artificial intelligence-driven decision to fire or discipline a worker.
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed SB 947, the No Robo Bosses Act, on Sept.
30 as one of 13 bills that day, according to the governor’s signing
announcement. The law bars employers from relying only on AI when they
discipline or fire someone.
SB 947 is one of three new California laws that limit how much
authority companies can hand to artificial intelligence. AB 1979,
signed the same day, keeps licensed clinicians in charge when healthcare
providers use AI. AB 1159 bars education technology companies from
training AI on student data. Newsom signed that law Sept. 10 in a
separate package of 13 bills on children and technology, according to
the governor’s Sept. 10 announcement.
Under SB 947, a manager who relies mainly on AI to discipline or fire
someone must back up the decision with other evidence, such as
performance reviews and personnel files, HR Dive reported. The law takes
effect July 1, 2027.
Newsom vetoed an earlier version of SB 947 in October 2025, saying it
was too broadly written, PYMNTS reported. The new measures put
“guardrails on AI at work to ensure human oversight,” Lorena Gonzalez,
president of the California Federation of Labor Unions, AFL-CIO, said in
the governor’s announcement.

Technology & Workplace Safety
Understanding and Mitigating Impact of Technology on Worker Safety:
Scientific Review
Training, engagement and
communication are tools to address the issue.
One of the central questions of implementing new technologies in the
workplace is how they will affect the safety and health of workers.
A recent study set out to find those answers.
The methodology used, called the Delphi method, is to get consensus
among academic experts about the most significant impacts on workers
and then to propose guidelines for mitigating the potentially negative
effects of digital technologies.
The first step was to examine recent research, from 2022-2024, which
observed the impact workers experienced based on the requirements that
they needed to implement as related to operating new technologies.
Based on a consensus among 24 academic experts, 42 significant impacts
affecting workers were identified, and psychosocial factors were
identified as the main risk factors affecting workers’ safety and
health. Stress, mental fatigue, and fear of replacement were
identified as major adverse effects.
The authors concluded that while technology offers opportunities for
modernization, it "also amplifies challenges related to mental overload,
increased cognitive demands, and organizational risk factors arising
from technological integration."

Tariff's Impact on Store Prices
Tariffs pushed up consumer goods prices by 2.9 percentage points: NY Fed
Trump administration tariffs pushed up consumer goods prices by 2.9
percentage points from early 2025 through February this year,
Federal Reserve Bank of New York researchers said, noting that prices
would have fallen without the import taxes.
After a year, consumer goods prices rise by about 0.25% for every
percentage point increase in average tariffs, the researchers said,
citing price gains among 67 groups of consumer goods included in
calculations of the Consumer Price Index.

ORC Enforcement Unit Expanding
Peel Police Brings Together Law Enforcement and Business Leaders to
Combat Organized Retail Crime, Announce Expansion of BEAR Unit
Peel Regional Police is hosting the Retail Organized Crime Conference
bringing together law enforcement agencies, retail industry leaders, and
public safety partners from across Ontario to strengthen
collaboration and advance efforts to combat organized retail crime.
By fostering cross-sector and multi-jurisdictional collaboration, the
conference, taking place on Oct. 6 and 7 in Mississauga, will feature
panel discussions, keynote speakers, and technology partners to
advance practical solutions and support coordinated responses to
this growing and evolving threat.
Expansion of the BEAR Unit in 2027
The conference comes as Peel Regional Police continues to build on the
success of its Break and Enter, Auto and Retail (BEAR) Unit,
a specialized enforcement team designed to
combat organized property crime and retail theft.
Originally launched as a pilot in September 2025 in Mississauga to
address break-and-enters and auto theft, the unit evolved after
investigators identified a growing need for a dedicated response to
organized retail crime.
Since spring 2026, the BEAR Unit has made 53 arrests, laid 263
charges and recovered more than $1 million in stolen property related to
retail theft. This demonstrates the impact of a dedicated,
intelligence-led approach to combating organized retail theft. Building
on this success, Peel Regional Police is planning to expand the unit
across all divisions in 2027, extending the BEAR model throughout both
Mississauga and Brampton.
Partnering with Retail Council of Canada’s
Organized Retail Crime Task Force
Peel Regional Police has worked closely with the Retail Council of
Canada (RCC) on coordinated efforts to combat retail theft across the
region, including participating in the national Retail Blitz program.
Partnering with the RCC's Organized Retail Crime Task Force, Peel
Regional Police have arrested 63 individuals, laid 158 charges and
recovered more than $29,000 in stolen property so far in 2026.
Peel Regional Police remains committed to working alongside the RCC and
retail partners to prevent victimization, disrupt organized retail
crime networks and enhance community safety across Peel Region.

AI Governance Gaps Raise Cyber Risks
What the C-suite needs to know about AI governance
As AI adoption surges, executives
are learning tough lessons about security, oversight and accountability.
Companies across the globe are implementing AI across their operations,
ranging from AI agents to adding AI to existing security tools and other
internal technology systems.
AI adoption typically moves much faster than organizations can set up
the guardrails and governance necessary to protect systems and
customer data, according to security experts. They warn that senior
leaders and board members need to pay close attention to cybersecurity
and oversight issues before going all in with AI.
An October report from PwC shows that companies are less prepared to
protect against cyberattacks targeting AI systems. Half of security
leaders said that protecting AI was the largest single preparedness gap,
outranking cloud-related security threats, third-party breaches and
ransomware.
“I actually think we’re seeing a growing awareness among business
leaders that AI opportunity and AI risk have to be considered together,”
Tonya Ugoretz, co-leader of the Cyber and Risk Innovation Institute at
PwC, told Cybersecurity Dive.
Cyber risk leadership
Among the key governance issues related to AI is the need to define
clear ownership over the technology. At many companies, there is a lack
of clarity over who is responsible for AI implementation and who decides
what measures are required to protect data and secure other critical
systems.
“Our findings show there isn’t yet one ownership model for AI governance
and risk,” Ugoretz said.
Less than 30% of AI accountability sits with CIOs, CTOs or other
technology leaders, the report found. About one-quarter of
organizations have a dedicated AI executive, and 17% of organizations
said AI accountability sits with the CISO.
Without clear lines of accountability, it remains unclear who ultimately
is responsible for managing AI cyber risk and ensuring that the
organization’s AI programs addressed security concerns prior to
implementation.

Cybersecurity Fundamentals Are Still
Key
AI underscores singular importance of phishing-resistant authentication,
Okta says
The company presented new data about
the prevalence of different forms of social-engineering attacks, saying
identity fundamentals still matter in the AI era.
Okta’s main message to enterprises was that AI is augmenting, not
replacing, existing strategies for breaking into targets’ online
accounts.
“AI is not the catalyst for identity attacks—it’s the accelerant,”
researchers wrote. “Because the underlying conditions for initial access
have not fundamentally changed, the architectural principles that secure
organizations against human-led attacks remain just as effective against
AI-augmented threats.”
Okta analyzed roughly 6,000 social-engineering events to determine what
kinds of attacks were the most common. The company found that 87% of
account takeovers involved attackers compromising passwords, with 58%
also involving the compromise of authentication push notifications, 36%
also involving the theft of app-based codes and 22% also involving the
theft of SMS-based codes. The most common combination was stealing a
password and subverting a push notification (47% of account takeovers
occurred this way), followed by stealing a password and stealing an
app-based code (27%).
Next, Okta evaluated each case based on how differently it would have
gone with certain security controls in place. The company found that
requiring users to use phishing-resistant account authentication would
have stopped 88% of takeover attempts. Adding phishing resistance to
third-party app sign-ins — an often-overlooked area of identity
management — brought the number to 99.75%. (The tiny remaining fraction
involved hackers compromising new enterprise accounts that were
initially permissioned with weak authentication and then commandeering
those accounts before the enterprise could apply stronger
authentication.)
As identity-management practices have become more sophisticated,
hackers have tried to bypass them with a wide range of techniques.
Okta’s analysis of several campaigns described multiple forms of
social-engineering lures.

Attacks Hit New Quarterly High
Ransomware attacks jump 29% to hit new quarterly high in Q3
The third quarter of 2026 made cybersecurity history, and not in a good
way.
During the quarter, attacks recorded by the Comparitech ransomware
tracker reached a record-breaking 2,627 ransomware attacks in total – an
average of nearly 29 per day. This is a 29% increase from the prior
quarter when Comparitech logged 2,030 ransomware attacks in total, and a
61% increase from the third quarter of 2025 when 1,636 attacks were
recorded.
Specifically analyzing third quarter ransomware incidents involving
retailers, Comparitech found that 199 ransomware attacks targeted the
retail industry, up 29% from 154 in the previous quarter and almost
double (97%) the 101 recorded in the same quarter of the prior year.
In the first six months of 2026, the Comparitech daily ransomware
tracker logged 4,217 ransomware attacks, an 11% increase on the second
half of 2025 (3,809).

Online Shoppers Beware
Police warn about buying new items online following arrests
The Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) said the public should
be cautious about buying new in-box items from online stores, as
they could be stolen merchandise from retailers.
On Wednesday, Oct. 7, detectives with CSPD’s Metro Retail, Pawn and
Metal (RPM) theft unit conducted an operation to arrest two alleged
prolific offenders, identified as 56-year-old Christobal
Hernandez-Lopez and 41-year-old Melissa Lopez, with active warrants for
felony theft related to organized retail crime.
CSPD said the suspects were known to have eluded officers on multiple
occasions in the past couple of weeks, so help was requested from the
CSPD Real-Time Crime Center drone officer. The suspects were taken into
custody without incident in the 3500 block of North Academy Boulevard.
The suspects are alleged to have worked together, targeting multiple
retail stores throughout the City of Colorado Springs, to steal
merchandise and then sell the items on Facebook Marketplace.
CSPD discourages buying new in-box items from online platforms
without evidence of legitimate purchase, as they are most often
stolen. These purchases increase retail theft in the area and often
support narcotics use by sellers, according to CSPD.
CSPD recommends that if buying new items from an unknown source,
buyers should make efforts to verify legitmacy of the retail
merchancdise having been previously purchased and use safe buying
tactics like meeting in a public place or at the police station.

More Amazon Layoffs
Amazon employees hit by fresh job cuts across several teams
Amazon employees reported a new round of job cuts across several
parts of the company on Tuesday.
A group of employees wrote in an internal Slack channel that they had
received emails telling them their roles had been eliminated, according
to messages viewed by Business Insider. The channel, which had nearly
37,000 members, quickly filled with questions about severance, access to
internal job postings, and whether further notifications were still
coming.
The messages suggest cuts across several business units, including
customer service, marketplace support, and engineering roles in Amazon’s
retail business, as well as in India and the UK.
Fewer than 1,000 employees were affected in total, according to a
person familiar with the matter.
The new cuts show that Amazon's cost overhaul is still reshaping its
corporate workforce even as the company embarks on its biggest spending
binge yet. After eliminating roughly 30,000 jobs late last year and
early this year to cut costs and flatten its organization, Amazon is now
preparing to spend a record $220 billion on data centers, chips, and
other infrastructure for AI.

running to the back of the store as people rushed inside. Houston police Lt.
Larry Crowson said the confrontation began when a man and his girlfriend brought
a dog to the grocery store. “The security officer told them the dog wasn’t
allowed in the business due to health concerns. There was some kind of an
argument. During that argument, there was an exchange of gunfire between the
security officer and the male suspect,” Lt. Crowson said. Police said both the
man and the security officer were shot and taken to a hospital. No one else was
injured.

Every Vendor Eventually Learns That "Yes"
Doesn't Always Mean Yes
"We like it." "Very
interesting." "Let's stay in touch." "Send me some information." These
are all lovely sentences. None is a purchase order. Experienced solution
providers learn to enjoy positive feedback without mentally spending the
commission on the Uber ride back to the hotel.
