Summary/Abstract: In the present-day reality of changes in the field of security, the protection of classified information is an important aspect of the versatile activity of ensuring national security, as a result of which it is exposed to various risks and threats. The accent is placed on the security of classified information, which is a complex of all statutory principles, means and measures that guarantee that classified information will not be the object of unauthorised access. Therefore, the protection of classified information is a system, which should be established and maintained in a condition where the possible threats are neutralised or at least limited to their minimum. The established system of protection of classified information must ensure the safeguarding of the information related to national security, while addressing the challenges both in peaceful times and in times of crises, conflicts and wars. Ensuring the protection of classified information from unauthorised access in situations other than those, which are customary for the system, is an indicator of the stability and the universal applicability of the envisaged principles, means and measures and of the efficient functioning of the responsible authorities. The design of an efficient methodology to identify and manage the risk related to classified information security will contribute to the application of a more efficient approach to counteract the threats in this field of particular importance.
