Abstract
The article is devoted to the scientific analysis of the implementation of security measures of participants of criminal proceedings in the mechanism of prevention of criminal offences against them. It was concluded that an important component of effective prevention of criminal offenses committed against participants of criminal proceedings is the creation of a system to ensure their safety by applying international legal norms of the interdisciplinary institute specified in the national criminal legislation. The specified task can be achieved in the case of: introduction of specific programs for the protection of participants in criminal proceedings (creating a simplified mechanism for choosing and applying short-term security measures and, a detailed mechanism for long-term measures; defining criteria for danger assessment by individualizing the needs of a person in the application of security measures, or a combination of more effective tools developing approaches to the duration of security measures based on the interests of justice and the existence of threats to the person); creation of a special unit to ensure the safety of participants in criminal proceedings, separate from the investigative bodies.
