Explanation

The best practice that should be implemented first to improve threat detection on the wireless network is C. Deploy a wireless intrusion detection system (IDS). A wireless IDS can monitor the network traffic and alert the administrator of any suspicious or malicious activity, such as unauthorized access, denial-of-service attacks, or rogue access points. A wireless IDS can also help automate the response efforts by blocking or isolating the attackers. The other options are also important for wireless network security, but they are not directly related to threat detection.
