Abstract

The article observes different aspects of the notion of “risk” from theoretical and conceptual perspectives. Taking into consideration the comprehensive and institutional nature of the notion “risk”, we analyze it in the context of interaction with the notions of “security” and “threat”. The article explains the general concepts of “risk” and “security risk”, their peculiarities and definitions, as well as the main indicators which allow us to measure their impact on the State security policy.
