Summary/Abstract: In the introductory part of the article the author discuses the notion of the system in general and the system of criminal sanctions in particular. In the sections that follow the author describes a historical development of the system of these sanctions in our legislation and that provides an analysis of the security measures that exist in our present day criminal law. The second part of the articles is dedicated to proving a thesis that extreme heterogeneity among certain security measures in terms of their content, individual goals that are to be attained by them as well as the method of achieving such goals, presents a serious impediment that prevents the formation of a single coherent system of security measures. In the end the author concludes that security measures do not poses specific features that would secure their independence and that would justify their separate existence in the registry of criminal sanctions, thus, it cannot be said that there is any system of security measures at all.
