Abstract Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has been a part of military activities since the invention and massive used of electronic-based systems. Military plays an important role in the emergence of Smart Society today. Using advanced ICT for accomplishing military tasks in advanced countries is a common, but that matter is not the same in military society in developing countries such as Indonesia. Therefore there is a need to define the proper characteristics for a military service so that it can be declared as Smart Military Society. On the other hand, the characteristics of Smart Society itself are not unified yet. In this paper, the characteristics of Smart Military Society are proposed by adopting, in some respects, a method used to score Smart City. Because of its unique nature and tasks, one new characteristic called Smart Defense which consists of four factors namely intelligence, weapon system, decision-making cycle, and interoperability, is added. Based on the comprehensive assessment, it is proposed seven characteristics with 26 factors that can be used to score and rank military services, and show if they are eligible to be called as Smart Military Society. This method is called as Smart Military method.
