Tourism is one of the most dynamically developing areas of the world economy, in which rural areas are getting more and more importance, since they are popular target areas of tourists. It is an exciting task to examine the link between civil lifestyle, tourism and security. The three major new types of challenges - economic recession, cybercrime and terrorism, which threaten tourism and the industries involved - affect many fields of science. All kinds of safety begin with the individual and family security. This is followed by social security, and then followed by the protection of national security and the security of the world and humanity. It is scientifically proven that safety is one of the basic human needs; there is the need for protection. In our paper we review and analyse some of the pivotal problems associated with tourism safety. This paper is only the first part of our broad research, in which we will also study the experiences of the civil population and tourists in Hungary and their sense of security. Research questions will be: 1. The European migration crisis reduced the sense of security both in population and in tourists. 2. Increased security preparedness will give a greater sense of security for both the civilian population and tourists. 3. The emergence of European migration crisis affected the Hungarians differently than the foreigners in their free movement in regards of their decisions for tourism purposes. The aim of our research is to see how much safety issues influence the general living and specific tourism potentials of the countryside, whether these issues have such negative impacts that halt the sustainable and smart development of rural settlements. In this paper we intended to call the attention on the relationship between rural development and security.
