Abstract: As technology develops, human life will also be supported by technology. Positive impacts can be felt with this progress, but the threats also come with benefits. One of the threats that is quite serious is the threat of cyber war, it is a wars carried out in cyberspace, not in the physical world. This also has an impact on Indonesia’s defense and security, given the increasing number of cyber crimes, so that additional strength is needed for the TNI to maintain Indonesia’s defense and security. This study uses a literature study method by taking references from various reliable information. The results of the study show that at this time cyber war is in sight, in every country, of course, must be prepared for this. The example of espionage carried out by Australia against Indonesia is certainly very threatening to Indonesia’s security. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a fourth dimension, namely the cyber army or the Cyber Force TNI for the creation of maximum and equitable national defense and security. As with various countries that already have a special force or unit for cyber, Indonesia must also immediately make implementation on it.

Specifically, the State Defense White Paper (2015) has identified the development of the paradigm of the national security issue. This book diversifies threats into 3 main types, namely military threats, Non-military threats, and Hybrid
