Hmm, I bet the answer is C. Probability of detection is all about how well the security system can do its job, right? No need to overthink this one.

This one's a head-scratcher, but I'm leaning towards B. The probability of detection is probably related to the security officer's response percentage.

That's a good point, Helga. But I still think option C is the best answer because it directly relates to the system's ability to detect threats.

But what about option D? Doesn't the time between detection and response also play a role in the probability of detection?

D seems like the right answer to me. The probability of detection is related to the time between detection and response, not the effectiveness of the system.

I agree with Valentin, option C makes the most sense because it's about how well the system can detect threats.

I think the answer is C. The probability of detection is a measure of the effectiveness of the electronic security system in detecting intrusions or security breaches.
