The article defines the term „security elites“ (security sector elites) and presents three possible approaches towards its perception. The first defines security elites as people who use their authority and position to provide general security.

The third approach describes elites as people providing security in a particular field using their positon and authority they gained through specific training (so-called elite groups).
