Summary/Abstract: The paper focuses on the aspect of critical infrastructure protection by the private security segment, which has an increasingly significant role in the provision of security. The critical infrastructure system is interconnected and cannot be perceived as a separate segment of security, since it is linked with the regional and global critical infrastructure systems and standards, as well as the importance of its protection and stability in obtaining the national and international security. The private security sector has a crucial role in the protection of the critical infrastructure system, which further develops and establishes its significance and competence in this specific area. More precisely, in this paper, the scope of interest is focused on the critical infrastructure protection by the private security in the Republic of Macedonia and the Balkan countries – the Republic of Croatia and the Republic of Kosovo, as a review and comparison of specific examples.
