Introduction. Modern security threats are becoming more and more widespread in the world, intensifying within the borders of the European Union. Migration is increasingly viewed through the prism of security in a particular country or even in the entire region, such as, for instance, European Union. Problem. Ukraine’s European integration aspirations make it necessary to study the common immigration policy of the European Union through the prism of the organizational and legal mechanism for ensuring security in this area. The aim of the study is to define the common immigration policy of the European Union through the prism of the organizational and legal mechanism for ensuring security in this area, as well as formulating proposals for its improvement. Methods. The methods of legal analysis, historical, and systemic analysis are applied. Results. The creation of the Schengen area with a common external border and no internal borders necessitated the adoption of EU supranational legislation, in particular to guarantee the security of this area. Since the Tampere Program in 1999, all five-year development plans have emphasized the security dimensions of migration. The Frontex agency was created to fulfill the goals of the EU’s common immigration policy and to strengthen the protection of the EU’s external border. The introduction of data collection systems contributes to the identification of persons and early warning and prevention of threats. Conclusions. In order to strategically reduce the risks associated with migration, it is important to strengthen the protection of the external border of the EU, intensify the control of the influx of citizens of third countries, and ensure an adequate integration policy. In particular, it is necessary to improve tools for data collection and processing, develop and implement new technologies for detecting illegal migrants, ensuring security at external and internal borders; improve integration policy. Only a comprehensive approach to improving the organizational and legal mechanism for ensuring migration security will help to cope with modern challenges and threats that may cause migration flows to the EU.

“…Moreover, the EEAS, led by the HR/VP, also plays a part in counter-terrorism in the Council Working Group via the Director of the EEAS Security Policy Division, as well as in the Standing Committee on Operational Cooperation on Internal Security (COSI) and the Working Party on Terrorism -International Aspects (COTER). Finally, the EEAS actively cooperates with COSI (that gathers the Ministries of Interior and/or Justice of each member state, Commission and EEAS representatives, as well as Europol, Eurojust, Frontex, and the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Training (CEPOL)) through the European Union Intelligence and Situation Centre (EU INTCEN), whose role is to provide non-public information to the EU HR/VP and the member states aiming to advise the EU decision-making bodies in the fields of CFSP and CSDP and counter-terrorism (Plater-Zyberk, 2017;Gruszczak, 2016aGruszczak, , 2016b.…”

What is security in the twenty-first century? Recently, issues such as crime, terrorism, energy security, population movements and migration, environmental and climate security, underdevelopment, health and pandemic diseases, as well as economic security have become important matters of European security. Furthermore, more traditional security challenges, such as military conflicts and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), have evolved and changed character. In this context, an increasing body of scholarship has recognized the European Union (EU) as a security actor, which is well equipped to tackle these complex security challenges, due to the multi-dimensional or structural character of its policies.Based on a broad definition of security, this unprecedented series examines the role of Europe in international security and justice matters. Taking inspiration from the European Security Strategy (ESS), it identifies more traditional security threats such as WMDs, but also points to global warming and poverty as the possible cause of conflict. Moreover, the series promises to recognize the intrinsic links between security and justice from a multitude of disciplinary perspectives and provides a platform for research that focuses on the study of Europe as a whole, going beyond only the European Union.

The data fusion methods, techniques and tools are regarded as a remedy for shortcomings of information/knowledge management and intelligence production. They also address current needs of the holistic, all-source approach to intelligence. Their implementation means the creation of new organizational elements − ‘fusion centers’. The concept of a fusion center has been introduced to and tested in the European Union for years. This paper examines data fusion processes and elements within the EU and focuses on intelligence fusion capabilities developed under the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). The examples of the Single Intelligence Analysis Capacity (SIAC) and EU Hybrid Fusion Cell in the Intelligence and Situation Center (INTCEN) are examined to evaluate challenges, opportunities and limitations of EU intelligence fusion elements. This paper is also an effort to indicate that there are still many elements to be improved within the EU intelligence establishment, including the area of data and information fusion – with the overall aim to effectively and timely support CSDP. Intelligence sharing by Member States with the EU remains one of the main impediments.
