Amazon Fresh Supermarket Opens in Northridge Northridge is the latest spot in the Valley to host Amazon.com Inc., which opened an Amazon Fresh grocery store Thursday at 19340 Rinaldi St. in the Porter Ranch Shopping Center. The new grocery banner fills a 30,000-square-foot vacancy left behind by Whole Foods Market, which relocated to the neighboring Vineyards at Porter Ranch shopping center. Whole Foods is also owned by Amazon. While Whole Foods specializes in health-forward foods and private-label products, Amazon Fresh is the company’s take on a traditional supermarket. It carries name brand products as well as those sold under Amazon’s private label brands, including Fresh, Cursive and Whole Foods’ 365. The Northridge store is the third Amazon Fresh location. The brand’s inaugural store opened in Woodland Hills in September, and an Irvine location followed in October. All three Amazon Fresh stores are operating at 50 percent capacity as a coronavirus safety measure. Amazon Fresh uses technology as a differentiator, namely through its Amazon Dash Cart feature. The store’s shopping carts use sensors and algorithms to identify which items shoppers pick, then charge their debit or credit card automatically when they leave the store, eliminating the checkout process. Also located throughout the stores are Amazon Echo Show devices, which shoppers can use to ask virtual assistant Alexa for help locating items. Amazon has confirmed it plans to open an Amazon Fresh store in North Hollywood, but hasn’t revealed a timeline for that launch. .

The son of a merchant, he ran his business with a simple motto: “Be particular. Never sell anything you would not want yourself.” This credo served Kroger well over the next 136 years as the supermarket business evolved into a variety of formats aimed at satisfying the ever-changing needs of shoppers.

Amazon is getting more serious about its brick-and-mortar retail ambitions with its first-ever Amazon- branded grocery store. The store does source a number of its items, including some produce and meat and other fresh food, from Whole Foods suppliers. It also carries Whole Foods’ 365 brand for certain items. But Amazon’s store offers other products, like Kellogg’s breakfast cereal and Coke products, that you won’t find at Amazon’s higher-end, organic-focused subsidiary. Amazon says the store combines the product availability and low prices of a grocery chain like Publix or Walmart with the convenience and quick shopping times of its Go model, with a selection that includes both big mainstream brands and local, organic produce.

SECURWARE 2020 Proceedings
SECURWARE 2020 The Fourteenth International Conference on Emerging Security Information, Systems and Technologies ISBN: 978-1-61208-821-1 November 21 - 25, 2020 SECURWARE 2020 Editors Hans-Joachim Hof, INSicherheit - Ingolstadt Research Group Applied IT Security, CARISSMA – Center of Automotive Research on Integrated Safety Systems, Germany Manuela Popescu, IARIA, USA/EU George Yee, Carleton University, Canada 1 / 110 SECURWARE 2020 Forward The Fourteenth International Conference on Emerging Security Information, Systems and Technologies (SECURWARE 2020), held on November 21-25, 2020, continued a series of events covering related topics on theory and practice on security, cryptography, secure protocols, trust, privacy, confidentiality, vulnerability, intrusion detection and other areas related to low enforcement, security data mining, malware models, etc. Security, defined for ensuring protected communication among terminals and user applications across public and private networks, is the core for guaranteeing confidentiality, privacy, and data protection. Security affects business and individuals, raises the business risk, and requires a corporate and individual culture. In the open business space offered by Internet, it is a need to improve defenses against hackers, disgruntled employees, and commercial rivals. There is a required balance between the effort and resources spent on security versus security achievements. Some vulnerability can be addressed using the rule of 80:20, meaning 80% of the vulnerabilities can be addressed for 20% of the costs. Other technical aspects are related to the communication speed versus complex and time consuming cryptography/security mechanisms and protocols. Digital Ecosystem is defined as an open decentralized information infrastructure where different networked agents, such as enterprises (especially SMEs), intermediate actors, public bodies and end users, cooperate and compete enabling the creation of new complex structures.

Walmart Inc. Takes on Amazon.Com
For the exclusive use of Q. Mays, 2020. 9-718-481 REV: JANUARY 21, 2020 DAVID COLLIS ANDY WU REMBRAND KONING HUAIYI CICI SUN Walmart Inc. Takes on Amazon.com At the start of 2018, Walmart faced critical decisions about its future as e-commerce continued to explode. Walmart just lost its long-held crown as the most valuable retailer in the world to online leader Amazon. With Amazon’s recent acquisition of Whole Foods for $13 billion, Amazon moved aggressively into the offline world to challenge Walmart in its biggest business, grocery. Walmart was not standing still, making moves like buying Jet.com for $3 billion in 2016. While Walmart’s U.S. e- commerce revenues grew to $11.5 billion in 2017, there was no debate in Bentonville, AR: Walmart remained far behind. The question for Walmart CEO Doug McMillon and Walmart.com head Marc Lore was how to respond to its most aggressive competitor ever (Exhibits 1a and 1b).1 Amazon The Early Years (1994–2001) Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in 1994 to exploit the Internet, still a relatively nascent technology. He determined that selling books online was most promising, because the number of titles available was greater than even the largest brick-and-mortar store could stock. Bezos and his wife drove west to start “Earth’s Biggest Bookstore” in Seattle, WA. Amazon offered 1 million titles for sale on its opening day in July 1995. Next year, the company had over 2.5 million book titles for sale, with revenue doubling every quarter (Exhibit 2).
