Chief Jeff Halstead (Ret.) is President & Founder of “CONNECT” by Genasys, formerly Evertel Technologies. CONNECT provides mission-critical messaging for first responders and public safety leaders across 33 states.
Halstead dedicated nearly 30 years of service to law enforcement and corresponding local communities. For more than two decades, he worked for the Phoenix Police Department, departing as Commander to join the Fort Worth Police Department. As Chief of Police in Fort Worth, he faced many national and global crisis incidents before retiring in 2015.
In an era where cyber threats continue to evolve and multi-agency operations become increasingly common, the need for secure communications in law enforcement has never been more critical.
Crisis management leaders need to be able to communicate effectively and in real time in order to ensure the safety of their communities. When it comes to communication platforms, there are many aspects to consider when selecting the most secure tool for first responders.
