Following the latest threatening events in tourism and having in mind those yet to come, we can conclude that no country can benefit from the tourism industry if at the same time does not develop the security system as an integral part of the standard tourist offer. Analysing the trends in tourism a few years back, the safety issue became a deciding factor when choosing a certain destination, and for that reason countries must not see safety systems and measures as an unnecessary expense but as an essential element in organizing overall tourist services. All major hotel and tourism companies should have a crisis management, elaborated procedures in emergency situations, and tourists should be timely informed about the potential dangers and risks and the measures taken to prevent them, and on procedures in emergency situations. Also, it would be good to have mobile applications that would enable tourists to make direct emergency calls with instructions on behaviour in crisis situations. Besides everything mentioned above, it's essential to implement and put into effect sophisticated security measures such as using surveillance cameras, controlling access to buildings, information exchange with colleagues and neighbors, reporting the suspicious occurrences to the security services, training staff for crisis management. Having in mind everything stated above, the security issue is definitely one of the crucial factors in the development of tourism in specific country.
