The article is devoted to the development of the latest research on the mechanism of economic security of the enterprise. The purpose of the article is a theoretical justification of the components of the mechanism of economic security of the enterprise. In the study of theoretical aspects of the mechanism of economic security of the enterprise, the following methods were used: generalization, systematization, dialectical and abstract-logical; when conducting an analytical study on the classification of threats to the economic security of the enterprise, the method of grouping, analysis and synthesis, graphic and economic-statistical were used. An abstract-logical method was used to substantiate the components of the mechanism for ensuring the economic security of the enterprise. A systematic approach was used to determine the process of ensuring the appropriate level of economic security of the enterprise. The history of formation and development of the concept is analyzed, the approaches of different authors to the definition of economic security of the enterprise are generalized, the author’s interpretation of economic security of the enterprise is presented. It is substantiated that the key methodological tool in the implementation of the process of ensuring the appropriate level of economic security of the enterprise is a systematic approach, which is dominant in the formation of the mechanism for ensuring the economic security of the enterprise. The authors’ approaches to the essence of the mechanism of economic security are considered and the author’s interpretation of this concept is determined. It is noted that the mechanism of economic security of the enterprise is a structurally interconnected set of measures and methods that enhance the impact on the factors on which the effectiveness of economic security depends. The elements of the mechanism of ensuring the economic security of the enterprise are determined. It is substantiated that the presentation of the mechanism of economic security of the enterprise is formed on the basis of scientific approaches and principles with the use of fundamental and applied theories, states the plurality of its elements and proves the complexity of the security process. This allowed to determine the direction of further research, which is proposed to focus on the choice of specific tools to assess the effectiveness of the mechanism depending on the conditions of the enterprise, the stage of the crisis process and the resource potential of the enterprise.
