Preoccupation of the public with ecological problems escalated during the last decades of the 20th century, and it has incredibly increased during this century, as well. Ecological security is a certain contemporary phenomenon that is present in diverse organizational units. This field is full of uncertainty and risks. From the moment of realizing that ignorance of ecological threats violates personal and collective security to a considerable extent and causes long-term and often catastrophic consequences to the environment, the need for ecological enlightenment has been recognized in many modern systems. The military organizations, which are the most complex security structures, are not an exception. This paper deals with security ecological risks in the military organizational systems and it emphasizes possibilities for effective action through constructive use of achievements of the modern digital age.
