Gwadar Port is a vital component of Pakistan’s development and an essential element in the Belt and Road Initiative and the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor. Its completion holds the promise of economic growth for Baluchistan and Pakistan and provides a crucial trade route for land-locked Central Asian nations. Gwadar Port faces many significant challenges related to security due to the region’s poverty, instability, and particularly its separatist activities. To address this, a study has been conducted to determine how to improve maritime security at Gwadar Port. The study uses a literature review, comparative analysis, and field research to examine the factors that affect port security. Terrorist acts, particularly those planned by organizations such as the Baluchistan People’s Liberation Army, pose the greatest security risks. Additionally, the unique management approach of Gwadar Port presents other security challenges. This study on the experience of port management in China and Pakistan offers strategies for enhancing security management in Gwadar Port. These strategies include improved coordination between entities, increased security measures, and strengthened cooperation with the Chinese stakeholders engaged in port projects. Prioritizing the development of local communities and education is crucial to ensure the well-being of both port workers and the surrounding population. The conclusion stresses the significance of international cooperation, the sharing of information, and improved foresight to strengthen the security framework of Gwadar Port. Integrating best practices and refining approaches will improve safety management, safeguard the facilities, and foster their sustainable growth.
