The goal of this article was to present the issues connected with threats, identification
and assessment of risk to security of people and buildings that are subject to special
protection. Risk, just like security, has become one of key components in protective
measures of the units responsible for protection and security of executive government
bodies of every country. Specialized institutions assigned to protect very important personages
in the state can be found both in civil and military structures. Universally accepted
and applied principle in protective measures all around the world is the one saying
that it is not possible to provide full security to people and buildings that are subject
to mandatory protection. Therefore, protective units are focused on minimizing the risk
of occurrence of potential events that may affect lowering of required level of security.
The goal of this article was to present scientifically substantiated correlation between
risk and protective measures executed by the units assigned for such tasks. Theoretical
research methods were applied in this article. The deliberations presented in the article
show that relations between risk and protective measures of the units responsible for
security of executive state bodies require research and conclusions from them may improve
the level of security of people and buildings that are subject to special protection.
