Summary/Abstract: In recent years in the world as well as in Europe, the most common security challenges faced by states are terrorist attacks. In recent decades, terrorism has grown from an acute to a chronic problem faced by the entire international community. Seemingly sporadic and uneven attempts to intimidate citizens and their legitimate political representatives, "overnight" become a tool for waging a special war. Accordingly, it is necessary to view terrorism as a global phenomenon and a threat that, due to its continuous action, takes on all the characteristics of a guerilla way of warfare. Pointing to terrorism as a security problem, as well as theoretical consideration of this issue, aims to create awareness of the degree of danger it causes. It is necessary to point out the use of different criteria, starting from security, political, criminal, criminological, sociological, etc., which are used to treat and conceptually define the phenomenon of terrorism. Modern terrorism is adaptable to different circumstances, unpredictable and dynamic, which makes its detection and suppression much more difficult. The paper aims to analyze the key features of terrorism as a security problem and social deviation.
