A very informative and interesting report has been released…
The report released by UNODC shows how organized crime has globalized and turned into one of the world’s foremost economic and armed powers.
The Globalization of Crime: A Transnational Organized Crime Threat Assessment
At the recent Loss Prevention Summit in Reigate it was agreed that collaboration between differing departments was key in tackling the £4 billion shrink issue the retail industry has… “collaboration is the new buzzword”
It will be interesting to see if this buzzword can be made a reality in the LP world…Disjointed and expensive to change corporate systems, that support differing departments, may temper ambitions…watch this space I guess.
Many clients I speak with have the legacy of trying to pull data from disperate corporate systems. Not only is this futile and error prone it is a very lengthy process which misses key information and delays the real investigation. Documents cannot be found, logged intelligence reports are missed and it seems that even working practices within the investigation are different depending on the background of the investigators involved. All his makes measuring success difficult and unreliable. Every successful solution has three core components People, Process, Systems. From what I’m seeing it looks like very little time is put into the reviewing of outdated and broken process and making sure that people are ready to take and use new technologies and that most time is spent throwing IT at the problem and saying “job done” when in effect it’s only just started… I’d like to hear off anybody who has good or bad experiences of this…
It has become apparent that there are big issues around managing security effectively in commerce today as the ability to retain a corporate memory of events, data, knowledge and information has become almost impossible. Therefore those responsible for security are left scrambling over disparate legacy systems trying to find what they need. Often by the time this is done it’s too late and usually it ends up being a task that never actually ends. Intellicase addresses the”corporate memory” issue… Not only is it a comprehensive intelligence, investigation and case management suite but it also allows other data sources to be linked and searched thus enabling these systems to be interrogated and the resultant captured for use by the security entity within the corporation. Nothing is perfect but this goes along way to addressing how an overworked department can use specific technology to address their issues head on to take action to protect their people, assets and reputation…
