Hello, everyone!
My name is Vladimir Sobolev, and I am a security researcher living in Yerevan, Armenia. Fully doxxed.
Operational security, OSINT, and DeFi are my primary areas of expertise and concentration. Having worked in cybersecurity for the past ten years, I am now totally focused on blockchain security, especially investigating new attack types and doing some on-chain research.

I conduct operations security audits for my clients, Resolv Labs and Pear Protocol, who are frequently the targets of assaults because of their involvement in the financial and crypto industries.
Additionally, I worked on the Developer Roadmap for Lido.fi & OpSec guidebook.
I worked for Immunefi, Hexens, and Pessimistic and have a lot of knowledge in the Web3 security space. Additionally, I am well-versed with Arbitrum; in fact, I prepared a lengthy research paper on its architecture.
I am aware of the precautions that must be taken to safeguard users, teams, infrastructure, and communication channels. I’ve also been mentioned in the media a few times:
I was also the first one to purpose an on-chain defence technology: here is the technology I described in late 2020. I believe I can be useful to Abritrum and create a lot of thematic content for both teams and users, conduct OpSec audits, and generally contribute to improving the culture and mindset of security in the ecosystem. I hope you will vote for me! Thank you!
