Abstract

Cyber conflict is a factor in modern politics. There is often a synergy between historical political issues and current cyber conflicts. Saudi Arabia and Iran have a long-standing mutual animosity that is now being expressed via cyber operations. This study provides a context for current cyber conflicts between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Iran. The political history of both countries is briefly explored. Then specific cyber incidents are examined within that existing political conflict. The current state of affairs between Saudi Arabia and Iran can best be described as a cyber cold war. This study provides both current cyber incidents as well as the political and historical context in which these incidents occur. The history of the modern states of Iran and Saudi Arabia provide a context for the political strife between the two countries.
伊朗和沙特的网络冲突
网络冲突是现代政治中的一个因素。历史上的政治问题和当前的网络冲突之间往往存在协同作用。沙特阿拉伯和伊朗长期存在相互仇恨,现在通过网络行动表现出来。本研究为当前沙特阿拉伯王国和伊朗之间的网络冲突提供了背景。本文简要探讨了两国的政治史。然后在现有的政治冲突中检查具体的网络事件。目前沙特阿拉伯和伊朗之间的局势可以用“网络冷战”来形容。本研究提供了当前的网络事件以及这些事件发生的政治和历史背景。伊朗和沙特阿拉伯这两个现代国家的历史为两国之间的政治冲突提供了一个背景。
