The article analyzes the security measures applied to legal entities in the criminal procedure legislation of the Republic of Armenia. These measures are aimed at preventing criminal activity, preserving evidence and ensuring compensation for damage. The article examines legislative innovations, including seizure of property, restriction of activities and other instruments. The author identifies a number of gaps in the legislation, which creates risks of abuse and legal uncertainty. The need for a balanced approach to the application of measures that minimizes their impact on the economic activities of legal entities is emphasized.

The author highlights the differences between interim measures applied in criminal proceedings and similar measures in civil and administrative proceedings, emphasizing their preventive and protective nature. The legal grounds for applying these measures, their procedural aspects, and the conditions under which they become necessary are examined.
