Auror launch Auror Subject Recognition: a responsible facial
recognition integration to keep stores safe
 Retail
crime is a global problem that is growing more violent, brazen and
organized, putting retail workers and everyday shoppers in harm’s
way.
To help retailers responsibly address this issue, Auror has launched
Subject Recognition, an innovative new tool that gives retailers the
ability to responsibly integrate their own information about past
serious offending with facial recognition technology (FRT).
The Subject Recognition module integrates with world-class FRT
providers, applying the crucial end-to-end workflows, strict
safeguards and important context to ensure that this technology is
used in the right way, while protecting the privacy of everyday
shoppers.
Auror co-founder and CEO Phil Thomson said unlike other FRT
solutions, Auror has built a system that ensures retailers use this
technology strictly for crime prevention and safety purposes only.
“We take our role in protecting information and building safeguards
for retailers using this tech very seriously,” he said.

Prevent violence and repeat offending safely and ethically
-
Ensure compliance through privacy-first safeguards and human
verification

The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
NRF Report: 'The Impact of Retail
Theft & Violence 2025'
New Study: Retailers Continue to Contend with Rising Levels of Theft &
Violence
Retailers reported an 18% increase
in the average number of shoplifting incidents per year in 2024 versus
2023
 The
retail industry continues to grapple with increasing levels of theft and
violence, according to a new study released today by the National Retail
Federation and the Loss Prevention Research Council and sponsored by
Sensormatic Solutions.
The Impact of Theft & Violence 2025 found that retailers reported
an 18% increase in the average number of shoplifting incidents per year
in 2024 versus 2023 and threats or acts of violence during
shoplifting or theft events increased 17% during that same time period,
indicating that criminal enterprises are becoming more brazen and
dangerous.
The 2025 report documents a troubling shift in ORC operations, moving
beyond physical store theft into more sophisticated forms. The data
shows that organized groups are now diversifying their criminal
portfolios, exploiting vulnerabilities across the entire retail
ecosystem. More than half of retailers surveyed reported increases
in phone scams (70%), digital and ecommerce
frauds (55%), shoplifting and merchandise theft (52%), and cargo or
supply chain thefts (50%) being conducted by ORC groups over
the past 12 months.
ORC is global in scope, with 66% of retailers reporting the
involvement of a transnational ORC group in thefts against their company
during the past year. Limited law enforcement and retail asset
protection resources and lack of prosecutors’ willingness to prosecute
are the top three reasons impacting retailers’ ability to investigate or
prosecute ORC activities.
In response to the escalating threat, retailers have dramatically
increased their investment in multi-layered security strategies.
Exterior security, interior security and merchandise protection are the
top measures retailers reported as increasing this past year. Measures
include cameras, lighting, license plate readers, locking cases and
changing store layouts.
Retailers are enhancing their security investments, and close
coordination with law enforcement and the judicial system are essential
to deter criminal actions against retailers. The majority (64%) of
retailers say that they reported less than half of their store-related
theft incidents to law enforcement. Lack of law enforcement response
served as the primary reason.
NRF continues to advocate for Congress to pass the Combating
Organized Retail Crime Act, which would enhance coordination between
federal, state and local law enforcement and provide the tools necessary
to tackle the transnational nature of these crimes.

Retail Theft Increases Despite Organized Crime Crackdowns, GreyOrange
Research Finds
64% of store managers and staff have
felt unsafe as tactics grow more aggressive
-
Retail theft is rising: 20%
of store managers say it’s gotten worse despite tougher state
laws and nationwide enforcement actions.
-
Thieves are adapting fast: 35%
call tactics “sneakier.”
-
Staff fear for their safety:
Two-thirds have felt unsafe due to recent theft incidents.
Retail theft is still on the rise and growing more formidable even
after years of tougher laws and coordinated crackdowns. That’s
according to the latest research from GreyOrange, a global leader in
hyper-intelligent warehouse orchestration and store inventory management
software.
State governments and law enforcement are targeting retail theft and
violence with increasing urgency. More than 30 state laws have been
enacted since 2022 to curb organized retail crime, including bills
that enforce stricter penalties and lower felony thresholds. In June
2025, major retailers cooperated with law enforcement agencies to
execute a first-of-its-kind blitz that led to 400 arrests in 28 states.
But despite these legislative and law enforcement efforts, US
establishments say retail crime is increasing as thieves up their game.
GreyOrange surveyed 500 U.S. middle and senior store managers in July
2025 to understand the changes they’re seeing in retail theft.

Troops Headed to More Cities?
Trump Says He Is Prepared to Send ‘More Than the National Guard’ Into
U.S. Cities
President Trump said
he would escalate his orders to active duty branches of the military if
he decides it is appropriate.
President Trump told American troops assembled in Japan on Tuesday that
he was prepared to send “more than the National Guard” into cities to
enforce his crackdowns on crime and immigration, further escalating
how he has talked about using the military at home and abroad.
“We have cities that are troubled, we can’t have cities that are
troubled,” Mr. Trump said. “And we’re sending in our National Guard, and
if we need more than the National Guard, we’ll send more than the
National Guard, because we’re going to have safe cities.”
In recent months, Mr. Trump began deploying National Guard troops to
cities, mostly heavily Democratic ones, often over the objections of
their local leaders, some of whom have launched legal challenges. He has
called upon the military to help stop illegal crossings at the southern
border and staff immigration facilities; guard federal property and
personnel amid protests; and back sweeping crime-fighting efforts.

Criminal Justice Experiment
Backfiring?
Boston homicide increase 'flashing red warning light' to soft-on-crime
experiment
Former prosecutor Wendy Murphy
criticizes leaders' message that 'accountability doesn't matter'
A surge in Boston homicides has experts sounding the alarm, warning the
spike exposes the consequences of soft-on-crime policies taking root
in cities nationwide.
According to newly released data from the Major Cities Chiefs
Association, Boston recorded 17 homicides in the first half of 2025,
compared to just seven during the same period last year – a 143%
increase. Nationwide, homicides fell nearly 20% year over year
during the same span.
Wendy Murphy, a Massachusetts-based legal analyst, former prosecutor and
nationally recognized victims’ rights advocate, told Fox News Digital
the numbers are "a flashing red warning light" that Boston’s
progressive criminal-justice experiment is backfiring.

Train cargo theft cost railroads more than $100 million in 2024
Train cargo theft cost U.S. railroads more than $100 million in 2024,
according to industry estimates. Experts say those robbing the rails are
sometimes highly organized criminal operations, and the threat needs to
be addressed because of a spike in cases. The Association of American
Railroads estimates that over 65,000 thefts occurred in 2024,
representing a roughly 40% increase over the prior year.

Retail C-Suites Facing Pressure to
Deliver
What Skills Do Today’s Retail CEOs Absolutely Require?
In a lengthy piece penned for Modern Retail, reporter Allison Smith
compared the Great Resignation that took place for many front-line
workers during the COVID-19 pandemic to a similar churn going on in
retail c-suites.
“More than 1,500 chief executives have left their posts so far this
year through August, up 4% from last year and the highest on record
over that period since business and executive coaching firm Challenger,
Gray & Christmas began tracking CEO churn in 2002. Retail companies are
leading the charge,” Smith wrote.
Major retail names such as Kohl’s, Kroger, and Ulta have seen CEO
departures so far in 2025, with 41 notable CEO exits having taken place
year-to-date, per Challenger, Gray & Christmas data presented at the
end of September. That statistic registers as a 116% increase over
the 19 CEO exits which were notched during the same time frame in 2024.
Andrew Challenger, labor expert for the firm, noted that “Overall CEO
exits are up, but retail really stands out,” when discussing the data.
“While the ‘Great Resignation’ among rank-and-file workers has largely
receded with the pandemic, leadership experts say a similar phenomenon
is now unfolding at the top, with retail CEOs under growing pressure
to deliver results in a volatile economy,” Smith added.
Majority of Retail CEO Exits Were Unplanned
This Year, With Experts Citing Various Factors
Russell Reynolds Associates, a leadership advisory firm, provided data
indicating that a majority (64%) of retail CEO departures in 2025
thus far were unplanned — grouping “removals, abrupt retirements,
and internal role shifts,” as Smith underscored — and only a little more
than a quarter (29%) were planned retirements, as perhaps could
be expected. Maly Bernstein of Bluemercury, Dave Kimbell of Ulta Beauty,
and Ashley Buchanan of Kohl’s were three high-profile executives singled
out as examples of this trend.

Unexpected Trait that Can Boost
Workplace Safety
Can Emotional Intelligence Make a Workplace Safer?
Those with high EI are better able
to assess risks accurately, helping to prevent accidents, says safety
expert La Forest Williams.
When Daniel Goleman wrote his groundbreaking book, Emotional
Intelligence, in 1995, it brought about a sea change in how we viewed
intelligence and, by extension, leadership.
EHS is a career that many turn to to fulfill that exact need. So, can EI
be a trait that can improve the safety culture? Yes, says La
Forest Williams, a safety program coordinator for the City of Richmond,
Virginia, who wrote a white paper on the topic for the National Safety
Council.
Williams talked about how emotional intelligence plays a key role in
safety (excerpted below).
Individuals with high emotional intelligence are better able to
perceive and assess risks accurately. They can recognize potential
hazards and understand the consequences of their actions, which helps in
preventing accidents and injuries. Additionally, effective
communication is essential for safety protocols to be understood and
followed.
Emotional intelligence enables individuals to express safety concerns
clearly and assertively, as well as to actively listen to others'
concerns. This fosters an environment where safety-related information
can be shared openly and acted upon promptly.

Tariffs Impacting Retailers
Carter’s to lay off 300, close more stores as tariffs decimate profits
The children’s apparel retailer,
already chasing profitability before new import duties, will close 150
locations in North America over the next three years.
Carter’s, which runs its namesake and OshKosh B’gosh brands, will lay
off about 300 corporate employees, or 15% of that workforce, by the
end of the year, the company said Monday. This is expected to garner
annualized savings of about $35 million, starting next year.
The children’s apparel retailer also plans to close about 150 North
American stores over the next three years — 50 more than previously
planned. Carter’s runs more than 1,000 locations in the region.
The announcements came as Carter’s reported Q3 profit declines
largely due to tariffs. Net income plunged 80% year on year to $11.6
million, and operating income tumbled over 60% to $29 million.

among its drivers and warehouse workers. The other 14,000 positions
came out of management’s ranks.

Retail Holiday Cyber Threats
'Jingle Thief' Highlights Retail Cyber Threats
A Morocco-based gift card fraud
campaign is a sign of what retailers can expect this holiday season.
A large-scale gift card fraud campaign run by a Morocco-based cybercrime
group offers an early look at the kinds of threats retailers may face
as they head into this year’s busy holiday season.
Dubbed "Jingle Thief," the operation primarily
targets global retailers and consumer services organizations
that rely heavily on cloud-based infrastructure. What makes it
especially concerning is the ability of the attackers to maintain a
stealthy, months-long presence on victim networks after gaining initial
access, according to researchers at Palo Alto Networks' Unit 42.
Weakly Protected
One factor that has fueled the attacks — and contributed to their
success — is that gift card systems are often inadequately protected
and widely accessible internally. This makes them an attractive
target for identity-based attacks where a threat actor with the right
credentials can issue and steal gift cards with barely a trace, Unit 42
researchers said.
The Jingle Thief campaign is only one example of increasingly
frequent attacks targeted at the retail sector this year. Scattered
Spider, a loose affiliation of like-minded English-speaking hackers, has
garnered considerable attention recently for high-profile attacks on
UK-based companies Harrods, M&S, and Co-op, as well as several US
retailers. Over the years, they have been several others including FIN8,
a financially motivated outfit known for attacking retailers via POS
malware and spear‑phishing and Magecart, a collective of operators
specialized in skimming payment card information from e-commerce sites.
Retail Sector in the Crosshairs
“Retail has always been in the crosshairs because it sits at the
intersection of three attacker incentives: high transaction volume,
widespread digital sprawl, and attractive monetization paths," says
Ensar Seker, chief information security officer (CISO) at SocRadar.
Campaigns like Jingle Thief highlight how attackers on the retail sector
have evolved from mere data theft to real-time fraud, he says.

Economic Downturn for Ransomware
Gangs?
Ransomware, extortion groups adapt as payment rates reach historic lows
Ransomware groups are facing an economic downturn of their own: In Q3
2025, only 23 percent of victims paid a ransom, and for data theft
incidents that involved no encryption, the payment rate dropped to just
19 percent, according to Coveware.
“Cyber defenders, law enforcement, and legal specialists should view
this as validation of collective progress. The work that gets put
in to prevent attacks, minimize the impact of attacks, and successfully
navigate a cyber extortion — each avoided payment constricts cyber
attackers of oxygen (i.e., Bitcoin),” the company noted.
A split in the threat landscape
Ransomware-as-a-Service groups like Akira target the mid-market and
ask for smaller payments, but their payment rate remains slightly higher
than the average. Other actors have gone in the opposite direction,
targeting exclusively large enterprises that appear able to pay higher
sums.
But large enterprises are now less inclined to pay the ransom.
“Several high-profile data exfiltration campaigns were largely
unfruitful for the attackers despite widely reported impact on the
victim organizations. These organizations are increasingly understanding
that paying to suppress the proliferation of stolen data has de minimis
to zero utility,” Coveware noted.
As payments fall, attackers are becoming less opportunistic and more
inventive. Since they are spending more to get in, they must target
organizations with deeper pockets – and many of those larger firms
already have solid patch management and access controls. As a result,
ransomware groups are turning to new ways to get inside networks.

Amazon Automation Impact
What Repercussions Will Result From Amazon’s Automation Push?
In an exhaustive Oct. 21 report from
The New York Times, the publication outlined details tied to several
Amazon interviews and internal strategy documents — with the thrust
being that Amazon execs believe the company is poised to replace more
than half a million (and potentially 600,000) workers with robotic
equivalents.
“Executives told Amazon’s board last year that they hoped robotic
automation would allow the company to continue to avoid adding to its
U.S. work force in the coming years, even though they expect to sell
twice as many products by 2033. That would translate to more than
600,000 people whom Amazon didn’t need to hire,” the publication’s Karen
Weise wrote.
The retailer’s robotics team also allegedly holds a stated goal of
automating 75% of its total operations, creating warehouses pertaining
to its superfast deliveries facilities that employ very few human
workers whatsoever. The documents appear to discuss avoiding words such
as “automation” and “A.I.,” instead preferring terms such as “advanced
technology” and “cobot” — rather than “robot” — to emphasize the nature
of collaborative work alongside human employees.
For its part, Amazon is attempting to downplay the report first
issued by the NYT, with The New York Daily News (via
The Oakland Press) reporting that a company spokesperson offered a
differing take on the allegations.
“Leaked documents often paint an incomplete and misleading picture of
our plans, and that’s the case here. In this instance, the materials
appear to reflect the perspective of just one team and don’t represent
our overall hiring strategy across our various operations business lines
— now or moving forward,” the spokesperson said.
It wasn’t made precisely clear by the New York Daily News whether the
spokesperson in question was Kelly Nantel, whom the NYT cited as stating
similar views as above, as well as plans for Amazon to hire 250,000
seasonal workers in advance of the upcoming holiday season.

More Clarity on Amazon's Downsizing
Efforts
(Update) Amazon cuts 14,000 corporate employees
Amazon is significantly downsizing
its corporate workforce.
A day after news reports indicated the online giant was planning to
lay off as many as 30,000 corporate employees, Amazon announced it will
eliminate approximately 14,000 corporate roles. A letter to
employees from Beth Galetti, senior VP of people experience and
technology at Amazon which was posted on the company’s corporate blog,
said the layoffs are a continuation of an organizational effort to
"operate like the world’s largest startup."
"The reductions we’re sharing today are a continuation of this work to
get even stronger by further reducing bureaucracy, removing layers,
and shifting resources to ensure we’re investing in our biggest bets
and what matters most to our customers’ current and future needs,"
Galetti said in the letter.
Galetti also said in the letter that this effort to operate more like
a startup will include reducing headcount in some areas and hiring new
employees in others. The company will provide most impacted
employees 90 days to look for a new role internally, with recruiters
prioritizing internal candidates, and transition support including
severance pay, outplacement services, health insurance benefits for
affected workers who are unable or choose not to find a new role at
Amazon.
These layoffs will represent close to 5% of Amazon’s roughly
350,000-person corporate workforce and are the largest workforce
reduction in company history according to CNBC.

Shootings & Deaths
Denver, CO: 2 Maverik store employees, Denver officer injured in shooting Monday
released from hospital
An alleged robber was shot dead by Denver police at a gas station Monday night
in an incident that also sent an officer to the hospital. The officer, who
suffered a non-fatal gunshot wound to the leg, was taken to Denver Health
Medical Center and was in surgery as Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas was giving a
briefing on the incident around 11 p.m. Monday. The shooting, which took place
at a Maverik on South Parker Road, began when police received a call about a
robbery from a witness outside the gas station’s convenience store at 8:45 p.m.
Monday, Thomas said. When police arrived on-scene, they found the witness out
front and were told that an armed person had locked themselves in the store with
two employees. The witness was a security guard operating outside the store,
Thomas said. As the five-to-six officers who responded were developing a plan
outside the store, they heard gunshots coming from within and forced an entry
inside, where they confronted the suspect and exchanged gunfire, Thomas said.
The suspect was shot and later pronounced dead at Swedish Hospital.
