About Yevgeny Dibrov

CEO & Co-Founder · Armis

In a March 2026 video titled "The Story Of Armis," Yevgeny Dibrov recounted the founding of the cybersecurity company with co-founder Nadir Izrael. Dibrov described their early decision to name the company "Armis," noting they wanted a name starting with "A" that was easy for Americans to spell and had a Latin-sounding sophistication, ultimately purchasing the domain for $19,000. He also recalled a later incident where the domain expired, briefly taking production offline before it was recovered. Dibrov stated that cybersecurity "has a way of reminding people who the good guys and the bad guys are" and that it is "really clear who is out to try and destroy Western civilization as we know it." He described Armis's mission as securing critical environments such as airports, hospitals, and energy companies, and said that as the company grows, it makes it "harder for the bad guys to do things." Dibrov also said, "We are proud Israelis, proud Zionists, and we are all working hard to make the world better."
