Abstract: The rise of transnational organized crime poses a significant threat to national security frameworks worldwide. In Bulgaria, the intersection of these challenges with political instability, economic transformations, and technological advancements necessitates a reevaluation of existing security practices. This study proposes a conceptual framework that integrates international standards and localized adaptations to address these challenges effectively. Utilizing a combination of literature review, qualitative analysis, and case studies, this paper identifies the critical gaps in current security policies and presents evidence-based recommendations. The findings emphasize the importance of innovative technologies, stakeholder collaboration, and comprehensive policy reforms to enhance Bulgaria’s capacity to combat organized crime.
