Summary/Abstract: The article constitutes an attempt to answer the question whether the methodological description of knowledge on security of organizations with political objectives (knowledge on security of state) is different from the methodological description of knowledge on security of organizations with economic objectives. The following security concept has been accepted: security of specific subjects is a state in which the subjects in a situation of conflict of values, within the source of goods granted by themselves, have the ability of sovereign legal decision-making and realization, accordant with the hierarchy of values recognized by them. In the light of this definition, security studies belong to applied (practical) studies, which determines the identity of the methodological description of the scientific knowledge on the safety of the considered subjects. However, studies on state safety differ in their object from studies on business security, due to the mentioned difference of objectives of the activity of the state and the economic organization.
