THE CURRENT SECURITY SITUATION AT MAJOR EVENTS FROM AN OFFICIAL PERSPECTIVE

Abstract: This paper examines the current security situation at major events from the perspective of public administration. It analyses the challenges posed by evolving threats, such as terrorism and cyberattacks, and explores innovative strategies for enhancing safety. Key aspects include the integration of modern security technologies, effective collaboration between public authorities and private security services, and adherence to legal frameworks. Case studies, including the Munich Oktoberfest and the 2024 European Championships, illustrate the application of these strategies in practice. The findings underscore the importance of proactive planning and continuous adaptation to ensure public safety at large-scale events.
