Summary/Abstract: The concept of integrated border management is based on the police model of the border security system. The migrant crisis caused by armed conflicts in the Middle East has given this system a great challenge. Because of the increased degree of threats to international, national and human security, a need for including other security entities in the state border security system has come forth. By engaging military units at the borders with Macedonia and Bulgaria, Serbia returned to practice the slightly forgotten model of combined state border security system. In relation to this, the paper points out the results of this system’s entities’ cooperation in combating illegal migration, with the aim to prove the justifiability of applying the combined border security system to have the successful control over illegal migration’s security risks and threats.
