Cancelling EURO 2016 would play ‘into the hands of terrorists’ according to the head of the tournament's organising committee.
Jacques Lambert promised France would take the ‘necessary decisions’ to ensure next summer's event passed off peacefully.
This is in the wake of Friday's attacks in Paris in which 132 people were killed and hundreds more injured.
These incidents - following on from the killing of 12 people by gunmen in January – have raised concerns about of next year's European Championships in France.
But backing down now is not an option for the hosts said organising chief Lambert.
"To ask questions about the cancellation of Euro 2016 is to play into the hands of the terrorists," he explained.
"We will take the necessary decisions for Euro 2016 to take place in the best safety conditions.
"I will not reveal what we are going to do because that would alert our opponents.
"The security in stadiums works well; the risk is more out in the streets, in spontaneous gatherings."
French Football Federation president Noel Le Graet echoed those sentiments, insisting safety must be a priority.
"We will do whatever it takes to ensure security despite all the risks that entails. I know everyone is vigilant," he said.
"Obviously this causes us to be even more vigilant but it is a permanent situation for the federation and the state."
The FFF cancelled the draw for the eighth round of the Coupe de France, scheduled to take place at Paris' Vincennes racecourse on Tuesday.
Confirmation of a new date and venue will be made as soon as possible for the draw between the 88 teams due to play on December 5 and 6.
However, it is business as usual for the national team, with all 23 members of the France squad - including Lassana Diarra and Antoine Griezmann - flying to England for Tuesday's friendly at Wembley.
Diarra's cousin Asta Diakite was one of the victims, while Griezmann's sister managed to escape the mass killing at the Bataclan theatre.
France coach Didier Deschamps gave players the chance to withdraw, but none did after the FFF declined the Football Association's offer to cancel the match.
The Wembley Arch will be lit up in the red, white and blue colours of the French flag to show solidarity with the visiting nation.
Screens will show the French motto 'Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite' outside the ground and before kick-off the words of La Marseillaise - the French national anthem - will be shown to help any England fans who want to join in.
The FA has urged fans to get to Wembley early as there will be increased security checks in light of the attacks.
