Summary/Abstract: This paper looks at the notion of a smart organisation by referring it to the concept of a smart city. It makes an attempt to properly locate the notion of security within the smart city concept by reviewing a selection of management concepts, methods and techniques applied in organisations. A reference has also been made to the possibility of solving research problems and use management methods in favour of city security. The author points to the numerous possibilities of taking advantage of the achievements of management sciences and discussed selected issues of civil planning, incident management and critical event scenarios for actions in favour of city security. Reference has also been made to the methods used in crisis management. The underlying thesis that the city security level may be increased by using management concepts, methods, based on the concept of a smart organisation has been substantiated along with an indication of directions for further research regarding city security and issues in smart city management based on the achievements in the field of organisation resilience and bricolage.
