Indicators for assessing the level of economic security of the region provide an opportunity for a comprehensive assessment of the development and stability of the territory, its ability to withstand the influence of negative external and internal factors. Studies show that there is currently no generally accepted method of assessing the level of economic security. Comparison of actual values of indicators with threshold allows to judge dynamics of change of levels of components of economic security of regions and to carry out a comparative assessment of these components. Definition and calculation of the integral indicator of economic security of the regions comprising the Central Black Earth Economic Region, is proposed by an original technique, allowing to assess the dynamics of changes in the economic security in general, and to determine the spectrum of threats at various components. The integral normalized indicator gives an idea of some boundary between the state of security and the state of insecurity of the region from external and internal threats and allows to visually compare the state of the regions among themselves.
