The U.S. Crime Surge
The Retail Impact
Retail Security's Consistency
Problem
Retail Security's Biggest
Weakness May Be Inconsistency
By
the D&D Daily staff
For large retailers operating hundreds or thousands of locations,
maintaining consistent security standards can be one of the most
difficult challenges facing loss prevention and asset protection
teams. While corporate policies may establish clear
expectations, their effectiveness often depends on how consistently
they are implemented at the store level.
Differences in staffing, management experience, employee training
and daily operating conditions can create significant variations
in how security procedures are followed. A policy that works
effectively at one location may be overlooked or applied differently
at another, potentially exposing retailers to preventable losses and
safety risks.
This challenge becomes particularly important for retailers with
geographically dispersed operations. Regional differences, high
employee turnover and competing operational priorities can make
it difficult for corporate LP/AP teams to maintain uniform standards
across their networks.
Even routine security responsibilities, such as merchandise
receiving, access control, incident reporting and opening or closing
procedures, can become vulnerabilities when execution varies between
locations.
For asset protection leaders, identifying these inconsistencies
requires more than periodic audits or compliance reviews.
Regular communication with store management, ongoing training and
clear accountability measures can help ensure that security
expectations remain part of everyday operations rather than
occasional corporate initiatives.
Technology can also provide greater visibility into how procedures
are being followed across locations. Centralized reporting
platforms, digital checklists and automated alerts can help identify
recurring problems, although these systems still depend on accurate
information and consistent employee participation.
Importantly, maintaining consistency does not necessarily mean
applying identical solutions everywhere. Stores face different
risks based on their location, size, merchandise mix and customer
traffic. Effective security programs must balance companywide
standards with the flexibility to address individual store
conditions.
As retailers continue to evaluate their security investments, the
effectiveness of existing policies may deserve as much attention as
new technology or additional protective measures.
For LP/AP departments, strengthening execution across the store
network could represent one of the most practical opportunities
to reduce preventable losses, improve employee safety and build more
reliable security operations.
Violent Crime Drops 25% Nationwide
Violent crimes have single largest annual drop ever recorded during
first year of Trump’s second term: DOJ report
Violent crimes dropped by at least 25% across most categories in
2025, the first year of President Trump’s second term, according
to a new Department of Justice report.
Preliminary
estimates in the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) released
Monday found the majority of non-fatal violent crimes — including
rapes, sexual assaults and robberies — dropped by one-quarter
from 2024.
Last year also saw a 31% reduction in aggravated assaults, a drop
of 390,000 in raw numbers; a 25% reduction in burglary or
trespassing, 460,000 fewer; and a 30% decrease in motor vehicle
thefts, amounting to 349,000 fewer vehicles stolen.
All other types of household thefts fell by 19%. The declines
were the largest single-year reduction in the history of the NCVS,
which is compiled by the DOJ’s Bureau of Justice Statistics and
began in 1973.
The declines are steeper than those reported by the FBI this past
May, which recorded aggravated assault dropping by more than 7%
and violent crime declined by about 9.3%.
Officials have credited the reductions to Trump’s push to end
cashless bail policies, deploy the National Guard to Washington, DC,
and other major cities, and close the southern border to illegal
immigration.

Bringing Police Into Shopping
Centers
Lee's Summit police opening satellite office in shopping center to
address retail crime
Lee's Summit city leaders and police are partnering with a local
shopping center to tackle organized retail crime. The Lee's
Summit Police Department will open a satellite office at Summit Fair
Lifestyle Center, located at the intersection of Interstate 470 and
U.S. Highway 50 near Chipman Road.
Addressing retail crime has become a priority for the Lee's
Summit City Council. That's why city leaders approved the
partnership to bring the 500-square-foot substation to the popular
shopping destination.
The substation is set to open during the first week of November,
Block & Company Inc. Realtors announced. Through the partnership
with Summit Fair property ownership, the city will not have to pay
for the rental cost.
The goal of the office is to reduce police travel time in the
event of crimes, establish a consistent police presence and
strengthen relationships with local businesses. Major retailers
in the shopping center include Dick's Sporting Goods, H&M,
Lululemon, Sephora, Victoria's Secret, Made in KC Marketplace, DSW
and more.

Cities Invest in Crime-Fighting
Drones, Other Tech
Peoria to consider spending millions for drones, other
crime-fighting technology
A proposed five-year, nearly $13.8 million contract between
Peoria and a crime-fighting technology firm includes launching a
Drone as First Responder program.
The Peoria City Council Tuesday night will consider whether to
continue working with Arizona-based Axon, which over the past
several years has sold the city tasers, body-worn and in-squad
car cameras, data storage software, and other technology.
Included in the new deal are about two dozen drones and a network of
automated drone docks around the city, according to a council memo.
“This will provide faster emergency response times and improved
officer safety” and provide live real-time information to
responding officers before they arrive at a scene, the council memo
said.

AI Doomsday Predictions
An AI safety leader says he stopped saving for retirement because he
believes AI will kill us all in the next 10 years
Nate Soares said he stopped adding
to his 401(k) because AI may kill us within a decade.
Saving for retirement is a bet on the future. Nate Soares, the president
of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, isn't so sure AI will
let us get that far.
"I do not save for retirement right now. I have a 401(k) from
when I worked at Google, but I haven't contributed for a decade," Soares
told The Atlantic CEO Nicholas Thompson in a recent interview for
Thompson's "The Most Interesting Thing in AI" series.
Soares' decision reflects a grim view of the AI race.
"Godfather of AI" Geoffrey Hinton and Anthropic researcher Evan Hubinger
have, respectively, put the odds of AI killing everyone within a
decade at 10% and more than 10%. Soares is more pessimistic: He told
Thompson he believes there is a greater-than-50% chance AI causes
human extinction in less than a decade.
Soares said that a sufficiently capable AI
could develop goals at odds with humanity's, evade oversight, improve
itself, and build the automated infrastructure needed to operate without
people.
From there, he said, it could reshape the planet around its own
objectives, potentially making it uninhabitable for humans — a
warning he shared with Business Insider last year.

In-Store Payment Options Can Be a
Deal-Breaker
Survey: Consumers willing to abandon purchases over lack of payment
options
A retailer not offering a wide range of in-store payment options can
be a dealbreaker for many consumers.
More than half (53%) of U.S. consumers would refuse to shop where
their chosen method isn't taken, according to a new survey from
in-person payment orchestration platform Aevi. The vast majority (85%)
of those surveyed want paying in store to be as easy as paying online.
More than a third (36%) of U.S. shoppers abandoned an in-store
purchase over a payment problem in the past year, including 10% in
the past month. Almost half (44%) said they are less likely to return
after a slow or failed payment.
Younger consumers value convenient payment methods the most. A third
(33%) of 18 to 24-year-olds named payment failures as a top frustration,
compared to 10% of those older than 65.

When Will Consumers Begin Holiday
Shopping?
Walmart: Here’s when consumers plan to start holiday shopping
New data from Walmart Inc. reveals consumer attitudes and intentions
for this holiday shopping season.
First-party data from Walmart customers indicates that close to
four-in-10 (38%) intend to begin their holiday shopping from October
through the first half of November. Another 20% plan to start
shopping for the holidays from Thanksgiving weekend through Cyber Monday
and 10% will begin between Dec. 1-15.
The “Walmart 2026 Holiday Trend Report” also indicates 2% will wait
until Dec. 16 or later. Close to nine-in-10 Walmart customers plan
to kick off holiday shopping before Dec. 1, and 27% say they will start
earlier than last year, with the top reasons being skipping the
last-minute scramble and spreading out their spending. However, in 2025,
half of Walmart shoppers had not completed their seasonal purchases a
week before Christmas.

Gatekeeper Systems enhances FaceFirst to combat violence and loss
Next-generation
facial recognition built to help you keep people and spaces safer

FaceFirst alerts
your team when an enrolled known offender walks in, now with faster
performance, a streamlined interface, and more features to empower
your team.
Foothill Ranch CA, October 28, 2026 —
Gatekeeper Systems, a global leader in intelligent loss
prevention and safety solutions, today announced the launch of the
new
FaceFirst, a next-generation facial recognition platform
designed to preempt retail violence and loss. FaceFirst identifies
known offenders the moment they enter a location, giving security
teams the immediate intelligence they need for human review,
decision-making, and response.
The new FaceFirst delivers even faster performance, a streamlined
UI, and a modern architecture with enhanced security, privacy, and
compliance features.
Detailed solution information and implementation strategies are
available at
gatekeepersystems.com/facefirst-next-generation/.
The FaceFirst update introduces a modern framework and streamlines
the user interface while increasing system speed and performance.
FaceFirst now integrates the separate portal, dashboards, and
insights panels into a single, cohesive environment. This new
interface lets loss prevention and security professionals complete
common tasks with fewer clicks and delivers extensive new analytics,
data governance, and audit features.
Advanced security, intelligence, and compliance features
-
Accomplice Linking: Helps
identify and track associations among known offenders to uncover
organized retail crime networks and fraud rings.
-
Criminal Behavior Analysis:
Provides visibility to known offender patterns in monitored
stores across multiple cities and states to help retailers build
prosecutable cases and prevent repeat offenses.
-
Data Governance and Compliance:
Expanded tools to help ensure responsible technology use and
comply with privacy laws and regulations.
-
Enhanced Mapping: Provides
visibility into top repeat offender locations and pre-enrollment
visit history to improve resource allocation.
FaceFirst
integrates ROC’s facial recognition algorithm, which is ranked #1
among American developers and #3 globally based on the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Face Recognition
Technology Evaluation (FRTE) testing. FaceFirst continues to deliver
rapid matching capabilities that are critical for threat recognition
and mitigation. This accuracy and speed are now paired with a
streamlined navigation menu and faster event-resolution tagging, so
security personnel spend less time managing software and more time
protecting employees, customers, and inventory.
The FaceFirst update also prioritizes responsible AI use
through expanded data governance features. As facial recognition
technology becomes a standard component of the retail safety stack,
these additional compliance tools provide the necessary framework
for transparency and ethical oversight. These updates reflect a
direct response to the growing complexity of retail environments,
where rapid threat recognition is essential to loss-prevention and
workplace-violence-prevention strategies.
“The next-generation FaceFirst represents the evolution of facial
recognition for life safety and loss prevention,” said Eric Schoch,
CEO of Gatekeeper Systems. “When a known repeat offender enters a
store, FaceFirst’s real-time alerts give associates the opportunity
to engage early with attentive, service-oriented interaction. That
presence alone often resolves the situation—no escalation, no loss.”
“We’ve taken an industry-leading solution and made it more
accessible and efficient for loss prevention teams,” said Matt
Howard, Vice President & Head of Product at Gatekeeper Systems. “The
new FaceFirst empowers responders with even faster performance, a
streamlined interface, and the continued confidence that comes from
the integration of top NIST-ranked technology.”

Retail Customer Data Exposed Through
Vendors
Breach victims discover their data was held by companies they’ve never
heard of
Nearly seven in ten people affected by data breaches handled by Kroll
were exposed through an outside supplier, according to its Data
Breach Outlook 2026.
Businesses rely on outside providers to store information, process
transactions and operate software. A breach at one of those
providers can expose customer records across multiple organizations,
including people who have never heard of the company holding their data.
“Across most of the major incidents we handled over the past year, a
vendor, software supplier or service provider was the link between the
initial breach and the organizations affected. One incident can
reach businesses and individuals who have never dealt directly with the
company where the compromise began,” said Denyl Green, Global Head of
Breach Notification at Kroll.
Technology companies accounted for 6% of breach cases and 60% of
affected individuals.
Providers serving multiple clients can hold records belonging to
customers across several industries. A compromise at one company can
require many organizations to investigate their exposure.
For example, several retailers might use the
same provider to manage customer records. A theft from that provider
could expose information belonging to each retailer.
Subcontractors can extend the chain when a supplier uses another company
to store or process its clients’ data.
The MOVEit file-transfer attacks illustrate this. Organizations were
exposed through their own use of the software and through vendors
that used it to handle their information.
After a supplier breach, each client needs to establish if its
records were involved, which details were exposed and who needs to
be notified. Those decisions may depend on evidence from the compromised
provider.
“Cyber insurers now know that identifying dependencies on common
vendors is critical to assessing and minimizing the risk that one
breach will impact many policyholders.”

Customer Records Compromised
Data breach at Sony-owned internet provider compromises 2.6 million
customer records
Attackers who broke into the So-net member database made off with
personal information belonging to more than 2.58 million current and
former customers, along with the email passwords of 54,401 users,
Sony Network Communications has disclosed.
So-net is a Japanese internet service provider run by Sony Network
Communications, part of the Sony Group.
“We have confirmed an information leak caused by unauthorized access
to the member database,” the company said in a notice published on
October 27, apologizing to customers for “the great inconvenience and
concern” the incident has caused.
The attack on the database took place on October 19, and the company
confirmed it on October 23. “After confirming this, we promptly
stopped the affected server and cut off communications from the
source of the unauthorized access,” the notice reads.
The stolen So-net records belong to 1,869,771 current members and
272,215 people who left the service in March 2026 or later, for a total
of 2,141,986. Another 443,495 records come from plala (S Course),
including 21,130 former members.

Hackers Impersonate IT Support on
Teams
Hackers bury inboxes in spam then show up on Microsoft Teams posing as
IT support
Threat actors are flooding employees’ inboxes with spam and then
contacting them on Microsoft Teams as IT support, offering to fix
the problem they created, Arctic Wolf has found.
The security company documented more than 400 incidents in which the
external chat feature in Teams was abused. In many of these cases,
the fake help desk message arrived minutes after the victim’s inbox had
been filled with hundreds of newsletter and subscription confirmations.
“Microsoft Teams ships with external access (federation) turned on by
default, meaning any Teams user in another Microsoft 365 tenant can
find, chat with, and call an organization’s employees, provided both
tenants allow external access. This is the feature attackers most
frequently abuse. This activity does not exploit any known Teams
vulnerability; it abuses a legitimate, default-on collaboration
capability,” researchers explained.
Moving the conversation to Teams also helps the scammers get past
people’s usual defenses. “Employees are generally trained to treat
email with suspicion,” the researchers noted, but a message that shows
up inside the company’s own Teams environment tends to get around that
caution.

196 Million Counterfeits Intercepted
Record number of counterfeit products intercepted in EU
Customs authorities and other enforcement agencies in the EU intercepted
a record 196 million suspected counterfeit items last year, with
a total estimated value of 6.3 billion euros. That is 67 percent more
than in 2024.
This is according to a report by the European Commission and the
European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO). Formally, the
figures concern items suspected of infringing intellectual property
rights. Of the 196 million items intercepted, 154 million were
detained within the EU. The remaining 42 million were intercepted at
the EU’s external borders, more than double the number recorded a year
earlier.
The total estimated value of goods intercepted at the EU’s external
borders was around 2 billion euros. Most detention cases by EU customs
authorities involved express courier shipments (45,094 cases last year)
and postal consignments (26,453 cases), which are “typically related to
ecommerce”, according to the European Commission.
Commenting on the figures, the European Commission highlighted the
challenges facing customs authorities: “Customs face increasing
challenges due to the growing volume of goods entering the EU through
ecommerce, combined with fragmented supply chains and diverse transport
methods. This makes identifying and intercepting counterfeit goods
increasingly difficult.”
The European Commission points to the recently adopted Customs Reform,
which will introduce an EU Customs Authority and an EU Customs Data Hub
to track supply chains in real time and identify high-risk shipments
more quickly.
Brussels is also using levies to curb the influx of counterfeit and
low-quality products, particularly from China, while promoting fair
competition, more efficient customs clearance and product safety. In
addition to the 3-euro import duty and the upcoming 2-euro customs
clearance fee, the European Commission is working on a surveillance fee
aimed at improving product inspections.

Online Shopping Safety
TikTok Shop, DTI promote safer online shopping practices
TikTok Shop is strengthening consumer protection measures in the
Philippines through stricter seller verification, product compliance
checks and buyer support mechanisms as online shopping platforms face
growing scrutiny over counterfeit and unsafe products.
The e-commerce platform reported that it rejected more than 208
million products globally before listing between July 2025 and July 2026,
according to its latest Global Safety Report.
The figure represented 99 percent of products found to violate
platform policies that were proactively removed before reaching
consumers. Another two million restricted or prohibited products were
removed after listing, TikTok Shop said in a statement.
The measures form part of TikTok Shop's efforts to improve
transaction safety and consumer confidence as more Filipinos use
digital platforms to purchase goods and services.

with theft and continuing a financial crime enterprise. Investigators say cargo
theft is evolving as criminals use increasingly sophisticated methods to steal
and resell goods.

The Best Solution Providers Know They're
Occasionally Selling Against "Do Nothing"
The competitor isn't

obvious enough to make change worth the trouble.
