Attention is focused on the fact that, for some authors, law enforcement activity is any activity related to the protection and enforcement of law; for others, it is the activity of competent state bodies in the field of combating crimes and offenses; for still others, it is an activity to protect public order. It has been established that law enforcement activity as an object of administrative and legal regulation is the activity regulated by administrative and legal norms of specially authorized subjects who exercise their powers to protect law and order in the spheres of social relations assigned to their competence in the established manner. It is substantiated that it is most expedient to consider law enforcement activities in both a broad and a narrow sense. Thus, according to a broad approach, law enforcement activity is the activity of all state and non-state entities that, within the limits of the legally granted powers, exercise their rights and obligations within the established procedural limits to protect values protected by law, in particular: human and citizen rights and freedoms, the constitutional system, property, the natural environment, etc. In a narrow sense, law enforcement activity is a clearly regulated by law activity of executive bodies of state power, which are defined as law enforcement as a result of their primary implementation of the law enforcement function of the state.
