The $strong$ $product$ $G_1 \\boxtimes G_2$ of graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ is the graph with vertex set $V(G_1 \\boxtimes G_2)=V(G_1)\\times V(G_2)$, where two distinct vertices $(x_{1}, y_{1}),(x_{2}, y_{2}) \\in V(G_1)\\times V(G_2)$ are adjacent in $G_1 \\boxtimes G_2$ if and only if $x_{1}=x_{2}$ and $y_{1} y_{2} \\in E(G_2)$ or $y_{1}=y_{2}$ and $x_{1} x_{2} \\in E(G_1)$ or $x_{1} x_{2} \\in E(G_1)$ and $y_{1} y_{2} \\in E(G_2)$. In this paper, we give the $g\\ (\\leq 3)$-$extra$ $connectivity$ of $G_1\\boxtimes G_2$, where $G_i$ is a maximally connected $k_i\\ (\\geq 2)$-regular graph for $i=1,2$.
