Who We Are ๐ŸฆŠ

The Armenian InfoSec Community is a community-driven initiative created to bring together cybersecurity professionals, students, enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the world of information security. We aim to build a welcoming, collaborative, and genuinely supportive space where people can learn, teach, grow, and contribute โ€” regardless of their background or experience level.

How We Started? ๐ŸŒ 

The Armenian InfoSec Community began with a simple goal: to create a warm, open, and collaborative space for cybersecurity enthusiasts in Armenia. Over time, it became clear that many people in our field โ€” especially beginners โ€” were looking for a community where they could learn comfortably, ask questions freely, and connect with others without pressure or judgement. At the same time, many experienced professionals were eager to share their knowledge, support newcomers, and contribute to a healthy local InfoSec ecosystem. Seeing this need and the potential for something meaningful, the initiative was started as a community-driven effort to bring people together, strengthen local talent, and build a culture of openness, mentorship, and mutual respect.

Our first meetup on August 15, 2025 showed just how much this kind of environment was needed, and since then, the community has continued to grow with positive energy and shared purpose.

Lore โš”๏ธ

Once upon a time, in a small but brilliant corner of the world, there were curious minds who loved solving puzzles, protecting secrets, and exploring the invisible world of the internet.
They worked alone, each guarding their own castle of knowledge. But one day, they realizedโ€ฆ the battles were getting bigger, the dragons of cyber threats were growing stronger, and the magic of teamwork was the only way to win.
So, they decided to gather under one roof โ€” to share their spells, sharpen their swords, and build a kingdom where knowledge flows freely, every voice is heard, and no one fights alone.
And thatโ€™s how the Armenian Infosec Community was born โ€” a place where heroes are made, legends are shared, and the story of a safer digital world begins.
