Abstract

From a military point of view, cyber power is perhaps the most important emerging tool of the past few decades. Currently, most of the armed forces of the countries are preparing to secure their cyber and cyber borders against such a new development. New military manuals are compiled based on cyberspace. In all levels of conflict, from internal rebellions to conventional war, cyber power is an inevitable factor of military capabilities, this capability is formed on the basis of modern technologies. Cyber ​​centers are an important organization in the military structure of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army, and the results of its performance will play a vital role in the performance and efficiency of the army. Therefore, determining their performance based on new strategies is one of the important duties of the supreme commanders of the armed forces. This research was done with the aim of presenting the cyber power strategies of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army. This research is based on an analytical-descriptive method and the use of available resources in the field of cyber power, as well as a comprehensive review using the SWOT analysis method to determine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and further based on the opinion of experts and The interviewees determined the weight of each option and 15 strategies were determined as the most important cyber power strategies of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army.
