Auto theft is becoming more frequent and more costly.

Over the past decade, auto theft claims in Canada have increased by 138%, while the total value of those claims has surged by 442%.

The trend reflects a growing challenge for vehicle owners, insurers, and dealerships alike as organized theft operations become more sophisticated and target higher-value vehicles.

Understanding the scale of the problem is the first step toward building a stronger security strategy.

Shopping centers already have cameras.

The challenge is whether those cameras are positioned and supported in a way that actually influences outcomes.

Parking lots, storefront entrances, and service areas are where many incidents begin, unfold, or escalate. Strategic placement creates visibility across these high-risk zones, but visibility alone is not enough to reduce repeat incidents.

Effective shopping center security depends on how monitoring, response, and coverage work together across the property.

AI adoption is accelerating across nearly every industry.
The problem is that security response capabilities are not evolving at the same pace.

As AI changes how organizations operate, it is also changing how threats emerge, scale, and evade traditional defenses. Attackers can move faster, impersonate more convincingly, and exploit vulnerabilities with a level of speed many response models were never designed to handle.

The conversation is no longer about whether AI will be adopted. It is about whether organizations can build the visibility, governance, and response capabilities needed to keep up.

Read the article linked below to explore why AI adoption is outpacing security response capabilities and what that means for modern risk management.

Auto theft is evolving and dealerships are feeling the pressure.

Organized crews, after-hours break-ins or trespassers, key theft, and increasingly sophisticated tactics are creating new levels of risk across dealership lots and operations. The challenge goes beyond just having coverage in place, to a need for understanding where vulnerabilities exist and how to respond before losses occur.

Our latest eBook, "Protecting Auto Dealerships from Modern Theft," breaks down the risks dealerships face today and the strategies leading organizations are using to improve visibility, reduce exposure, and strengthen protection across their properties.
