Gulf Security: From Deterrence to Cyber
The article addresses the future of security in the Gulf region amidst regional and international changes, with a focus on the challenges facing traditional security systems. It points out that classical security approaches rely on deterrence and balance of power, which are no longer sufficient to manage current risks—especially given the escalation of conflicts and the rising costs of armed conflicts, which reached approximately $2.8 trillion in 2024. The article emphasizes the necessity of adopting a "networked security" model, involving regional actors and major powers, to more effectively manage risks—particularly as tensions and conflicts in the region increase, and as prospects for regional agreements or continuous instability remain. It highlights the importance of openness to development aspirations and economic objectives that require security stability, and discusses the possibility of Iran and Gulf countries collaborating to achieve sustainable security in the region.
