Retail
Retail buildings are a demanding and complex environment to operate and secure, and violence against retailers and shoppers has escalated in recent years. Buildings must improve their mitigation efforts and rethink risk management strategies.
Post-pandemic, retail buildings are expanding their security footprint with staff training, secured entrances to buildings, video cameras, access control systems, doubling security staff, and new mitigation technologies. Addressing retail security challenges requires a multi-disciplinary, multi-pronged approach that includes strategies, tactics, resources, and new technologies.
