ASIS PSP Study Guide - Chapter 6 Deep Dive

This episode presents a deep dive into the topic of intrusion and contraband detection systems, as covered in chapter six of the ASIS Physical Security Professional certification study guide. The discussion covers topics such as probability of detection, confidence level, false alarm and nuisance alarm rates, vulnerability to defeat, logical gates, line supervision, and exterior sensors. Covert terrain following sensors, magnetic field sensors, and ported coaxial cables are also discussed as potential sensors for intrusion detection. The guide explains the different types of sensors used for perimeter security, such as buried sensors, fiber optic cables, and fence disturbance sensors. It also discusses the differences between various types of sensors, such as taut wire and static microwave sensors, and how they are vulnerable to certain elements. Additionally, the guide covers the use of sensors for interior intrusion detection, specifically the use of dual technology sensors versus separate sensors for a higher level of security.:
