Download and use the PBSO app regularly for instant information and two-way communications with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office; and, help make Palm Beach County a better, safer place to live, work and enjoy.  But it’s not a one-way communications tool: ConnectProtect technology gives Palm Beach County residents an unsurpassed ability to communicate directly to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.  ConnectProtect technology enables residents of Palm Beach County to instantly let PBSO know when there is suspicious activity that they think needs attention, making Palm Beach County residents a vital part in the fight against crime and terrorism.  The new, Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office uses ConnectProtect technology to provide two-way communications between the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office and the people of Palm Beach County.  Through PBSOConnectProtect , PBSO can be in contact with the residents of Palm Beach County with information based on exactly where you are at the time.  The PBSO app is part of a revolution in communications between law enforcement and the people they serve.  Information that is relevant to your neighborhood – even the street where you live – can be instantly sent to you.  After a crime or act of terrorism, all too often someone say that they saw something beforehand, but didn’t say something when they saw it.  Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
