Abstract
Economic security is unthinkable without transport security. The transport industry provides an active exchange of goods between territories, accelerates the development of individual territories and helps to reduce the level of stratification between regions. In this regard, considering economic security as a factor of economic growth and economic development requires paying attention to ensuring economic security in the field of transport. At the same time, a large number of problems remain in the field of economic security of transport today, due to the fact that transport is very much dependent on the state of the economic conjuncture, and therefore the transport industry remains extremely vulnerable to fluctuations in the economic cycle. This article suggests approaches to strengthening state regulation of economic security management in the field of transport at the national level. In particular, it is advisable to focus efforts on the development of the transport industry not only on technological aspects, but also to establish justified criteria for the economic security of transport, which would contribute to ensuring reasonable management of the process of development of the transport industry. A key technique to accelerate the transition to managed economic security in transport should be the adoption of a strategy for economic security of transport.
