Abstract

Cloud services, as an emerging and transformative technology, have the potential to revolutionize the entire defense service sector. The defense organizations of the Islamic Republic of Iran are no exception to this transformation. This technology brings both opportunities and threats, requiring appropriate understanding and actions. This research focuses on identifying and prioritizing the strategic issues of cloud services in defense organizations with a global approach. Issues such as information security, identity management, infrastructure, and standardization are among the key challenges. The goal of the research is to create coordination and convergence among the actors in this field at the defense and national levels. The research method is a mixed approach (quantitative and qualitative) with a descriptive-analytical framework. The results show that the development of cloud services in defense organizations requires cultural change, security measures, and the establishment of appropriate laws. Recommendations for the development of these services with a global approach are provided.
