Get yourself a partnership deal with Cisco or Juniper UAE. And before you set feet in Abu Dhabi, sell your monitoring services to another government (preferably the U.S. government.) Then enter into a public negotiation with Saudi Arabia. Hard, I know. But as soon as you sell to the UAE the rest of the Gulf will follow. Wherever Abu Dhabi goes (not Dubai!) the rest go. Dubai is such an anomaly, it's hard to predict your success if you first gain traction there (unless you're targeting South Asia; success in Dubai almost guarantees success in the Indian subcontinent.) Saudi Arabia is always the first to show interest in a new technology, and the second to last to adopt it. Dubai gets the first regional office. Abu Dhabi buys it first. Kuwait and Qatar watch from afar, and only join in after they negotiate the best deals for themselves, and they're the first to iron out their laws to accommodate this social change (Kuwait, specially, is the most socially progressive country in the region). Bahrain and Oman usually take their time, and along with them comes the Saudi government.
