the article makes an attempt at a theoretical, legal and estological analysis of the place and services of one’s own (internal) security in the prevention of counteraction to extremism in law enforcement agencies in the legal and admin-istrative reality of modern Russia. The authors reflect the research perspectives on the security function of law enforcement agencies, further divide it into in-ternal and external, and justify the need for a more detailed study of the inter-nal security function and determine its place in Russian management and legal doctrine. Materials and methods: the methodological basis of the study is the dia-lectical method of cognition, formal legal, estological, as well as historical and legal methods, which made it possible to identify the peculiarities of the func-tioning of own (internal) security services in the prevention of countering ex-tremism in law enforcement agencies The results of the study: made it possible to determine that the function of ensuring security by law enforcement agencies within the law enforcement agencies themselves, although it has a scientific interpretation, appears to be insufficiently studied and popularized in scientific law enforcement discourse. It is necessary not only to identify criteria for determining the list of govern-ment bodies, services and institutions in which law enforcement service is pro-vided, but also to establish the legal status, tasks and functions of internal se-curity units, which, according to the authors, along with other tasks, must per-form functions to prevent misdeeds and crimes committed by law enforcement officers in the process of implementing law enforcement in the field of ensuring the security of society and the state, manifestations of extremist and terrorist threats, identify personal deformations of individual employees that cause possible difficulty in fulfilling the designated functions. Conclusions and conclusions: the anti-extremist and anti-terrorist func-tion of the own (internal) security services of law enforcement agencies, in our opinion, should consist of increased attention to the activities of law enforce-ment officers, ensuring both the security of objects (territories) regardless of their category, and in the process performing any daily duties. The preventive function of internal (internal) security services should be aimed at instilling in employees a dislike of extremism and the absence of extremist motivation when they perform basic official functions.
