Advisory board appointments underscore the strategic impact of the vArmour acquisition and Fenix24’s commitment to transforming enterprise cyber resilience
Fenix24™, the global leader in cyber disaster recovery, today announced the appointment of cybersecurity veterans Timothy Eades and Marc Woolward to its advisory board. The addition of these experts reflects Fenix24’s continued momentum following its acquisition of vArmour, and underscores the company’s commitment to delivering the most advanced recovery and operational resiliency solutions on the market.
“The acquisition of vArmour significantly enhanced Fenix24’s capabilities, particularly in delivering greater visibility to application dependencies and operational resiliency before and after a cyber incident.” Fenix24 CEO Mark Grazman said. “I have known Tim and Marc personally for many years through their leadership and innovation and we are honored to have their deep expertise in cybersecurity, innovation, and enterprise resilience as part of Fenix24.
Eades, a veteran cybersecurity executive with over two decades of leadership experience, is currently the CEO and co-founder of Anetac, an identity and security platform provider, and co-founder of the Cyber Mentor Fund. As the former CEO of vArmour, Eades guided the company through significant innovation and growth. He was also instrumental in connecting vArmour and Fenix24, recognizing the synergies between the two organizations and their shared vision for modern enterprise resilience.
“Fenix24 is tackling one of the most critical gaps in cybersecurity which is ensuring that organizations can not only withstand an attack, but recover with speed and confidence,” said Eades. “The company’s mission, team, and technology are uniquely positioned to lead the next phase of cyber resilience, and I’m excited to support their continued growth and help shape solutions that truly move the industry forward.”
Woolward is a seasoned technology leader with 35 years of experience in digital innovation, secure distributed systems, and operational resilience. Prior to his Fenix24 advisor board appointment, Woolward served as vArmour’s Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and Chief Technology Office, where he shaped the company’s technical direction and was a key architect of its platform — expertise that directly informed Fenix24’s decision to acquire the company. Woolward is playing a central role in integrating the two organizations, helping translate vArmour’s capabilities into enhanced visibility and recovery tools for Fenix24’s customers.
Woolward now joins Fenix24’s advisory board to guide continued innovation across both peacetime posture and incident response. He also serves as a technology resilience consultant at Groundswell Technology Consulting.
“After nearly a decade in the startup trenches, I’m excited to join Fenix24 as an advisor following its acquisition of vArmour,” said Woolward. “Fenix24 is leading the fight against ransomware with a deep understanding of what it takes to restore and maintain critical operations, particularly through accurate asset inventory and dependency mapping. I’m looking forward to helping the team strengthen these capabilities and tailor them to the complex demands of critical national infrastructure and enterprise resilience.”
