CVS Launches New Tech Allowing Customers to Unlock Products

CVS pharmacy is rolling out new innovative technology that gives trustworthy customers the power to unlock inventory themselves.

They can simply use the CVS mobile app on their phone to unlock an item.

Cyber security expert Alan Crowetz says it's a clever way to make shopping more convenient for honest customers and still deter shoplifters.

Many companies have placed a variety of products behind glass to protect them from theft.

Walmart is testing similar technology in several hundred of its stores.
