Episode #16: Samvel Martirosyan's Foundations: Information Security, Media, and Digital Resilience

Welcome back to Foundations with Larisa Hovannisian. Today, I’m joined by Samvel Martirosyan — cybersecurity expert, media analyst, and one of Armenia’s most essential public educators on digital safety. Known for making complex threats understandable, Samvel has spent the last two decades protecting Armenia’s digital borders and fighting disinformation. Whether advising institutions or speaking to everyday citizens, he’s helped shape national awareness in an increasingly chaotic information landscape. In this episode, we’ll dive into the foundations of his public service and what’s really at stake in the fight for digital truth.
