Secure retailing...six steps to make it happen

Of late, the words 'secure' and 'retailing' have rarely been seen in the same sentence due to the fact that the retail industry has emerged as a favourite playground for hackers. This is underscored by the British Retail Consortium’s Retail Crime Survey, which found that the majority of retailers see cyber attacks as a critical threat to their business, with nearly two thirds targeted by hackers in the last 12 months. It's no wonder that the same survey showed that one third of consumers do not trust retail information security.

The Nigerian public and the newly launched Police Complaint Response Unit

Nigeria's number one cop who is stuck in reactive, sleep-walking and kangaroo policing. Proactive policing is offensive to him, hence criminals in Nigeria are ahead of him and his good-for-nothing team! Now, listen Solomon, why are 160, 000 police still not on the frontline, but serving the Thief-Executives and Their-Excel-rogues? Arase is proud and boastful of having officers attending to the big men and women in Nigeria, who use them as mere house-helps and for all sorts of things as feeding VIPs' children, bathing them and taking them to and from schools with phlegms drooling down their nostrils!
