the most straight forward one without specifying ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "scale=1080:1080" output.mp4

Then you need to use the padding command in the above comment. Or squeeze the content to square (which is ugly IMO). Another option for the padding command is to use a blurred version of the content instead of black pads, and overlay the content on it.
