Dengan rekam jejak yang dialami Arab Saudi dengan isu keuangan yang berasal dari kerajaan ke kelompok - kelompok tertentu yang sebagian terindikasi ke dalam penyalahgunaan untuk front teroris menunjukkan bahwa dalam menghadapi isu terorisme tersebut, penindakan melalui pihak militer maupun angkatan bersenjata lain tidaklah cukup. Dengan pengetatan pertahanan dan keamanan dari aspek militer dan non militer baik secara internal maupun eksternal setidaknya dapat menekan posibilitas serangan kelompok teror terhadap negara. Dibuktikan melalui Arab Saudi yang berhasil menanggulangi indikasi pergerakan kelompok teror hingga 95% melalui pemberlakuan kebijakan dan yang telah dijalankan (Baitalmal, 2016).
