Abstract: | The set of all m × n Boolean matrices is denoted by $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
m,n
. We call a matrix A ∈ $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
m,n
regular if there is a matrix G ∈ $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
n,m
such that AGA = A. In this paper, we study the problem of characterizing linear operators on $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
m,n
that strongly preserve regular matrices. Consequently, we obtain that if min{m, n} ⩽ 2, then all operators on $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
m,n
strongly preserve regular matrices, and if min{m, n} ⩾ 3, then an operator T on $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
m,n
strongly preserves regular matrices if and only if there are invertible matrices U and V such that T(X) = UXV for all X ε $
\mathbb{M}
$
\mathbb{M}
m,n
, or m = n and T(X) = UX

V for all X ∈ $
