The business environment in which russian organizations operate is complex due to the intense competition between business partners. In such conditions, organizations are forced to adapt to the imperfections of the legal framework, search for qualified personnel, solve issues related to the physical and moral deterioration of fixed assets, lack of current assets and cash, imperfect tax policy, insolvency of business partners, etc.to ensure their own economic security. Economic security is considered at two levels: at the macro level, that is, as the security of the state, and at the micro level – as the security of the organization. In this study, we will understand the economic security of an organization as a condition in which it is protected from external and internal threats, as well as aimed at obtaining a stable income in an uninterrupted operation and using all the resources available to it. Economic security can be characterized not only by qualitative, but also quantitative indicators. The most significant quantitative indicator is the level of economic security, which is an assessment of the state of use of the organization's resources according to certain criteria. Economic security management is a complex mechanism on which the well-being of an organization depends. In turn, to implement such a mechanism, it is necessary to create a system for managing the organization's economic security. At the same time, the organization's economic security management system consists of a set of organizational and managerial, regime, technical, preventive and propaganda measures aimed at protecting the organization's interests and property from both external and internal threats. In many cases, enterprises create their own security system to manage and ensure economic security of their financial and economic activities. However, it should be taken into account that it is impossible to create a universal system of economic security suitable for any organization, since each organization is unique, with its own characteristics of work, capabilities, potential and is focused on a specific market segment.
