This article is devoted to the study of procedural and criminological aspects of ensuring the safety of participants in criminal proceedings. The problems of legal regulation of ensuring the safety of participants in these proceedings are also considered. The legal status of the subjects of relevant decisions is analyzed and the international and Ukrainian experience in regulating these issues is studied. The methods of dialectical, formal-logical, historical, structural-functional, institutional analysis, content analysis of laws and regulations and the method of evaluation of scientific positions were used. Among the relevant results of the research, the necessity of implementing security measures for participants of criminal proceedings in the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine in a separate section was demonstrated. Similarly, the expediency of creating in Ukraine a specialized independent structural unit for the implementation of measures to protect persons involved in criminal proceedings is discussed. In the main conclusions the need for the introduction in Ukraine of corresponding programs for the protection of participants in criminal proceedings is argued.
