Axonius, the asset intelligence platform for unified security operations and exposure management, has appointed Meghan Marks as Chief Marketing Officer and Jared Vichengrad as Senior Vice President and General Manager of Axonius Federal Systems (AFS). These strategic leadership appointments follow the company’s strongest fiscal year performance, with two record-breaking quarters in 2026, and position Axonius for continued market expansion and category dominance.

Quick Intel

  • Meghan Marks joins as CMO with over 20 years of experience building category-defining brands at Orca Security (former CMO), Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, Puppet, and Siemens.
  • She will oversee global brand strategy, product marketing, demand generation, and communications to scale demand and articulate Axonius as the “platform of platforms” for unified security operations.
  • Jared Vichengrad is named SVP and GM of Axonius Federal Systems, bringing expertise from Check Point and Rubrik to lead federal cybersecurity initiatives focused on Zero Trust compliance.
  • The appointments cap a year of executive team strengthening, including additions such as General Counsel Sanam Saaber (ex-Box) and SVP of Global Sales Klaus Moser (ex-Qualys).
  • Axonius closed fiscal year 2026 with exceptional momentum, driven by global adoption of its Asset Cloud as the single source of truth for assets and exposures.
  • Marks and Vichengrad will help transform asset intelligence into actionable security outcomes across traditional IT and expanding cyber-physical environments.

Driving Category Leadership and Market Expansion

Marks brings a proven blend of enterprise-scale marketing and startup agility to Axonius. Her experience defining cloud security markets and accelerating high-growth companies aligns with the company’s next phase of growth, where organizations increasingly rely on Axonius to unify visibility across hybrid environments and prioritize risk reduction.

“Axonius has already solved one of the most pervasive problems in cybersecurity: the inability to see and manage all assets, whether you own them or they exist in the dark shadow of your network,” said Marks. “The opportunity now is to cement Axonius as the ‘platform of platforms’ for unified security operations and exposure management. I look forward to working with this team to help our customers navigate their entire attack surface – extending our decision-grade intelligence beyond traditional IT to the critical and expanding world of cyber-physical assets.”

Strengthening Federal Presence

Vichengrad’s leadership will accelerate Axonius Federal Systems’ focus on supporting U.S. government agencies in meeting Zero Trust mandates through continuously reconciled asset and exposure intelligence. His appointment follows a strong Q4 performance by AFS and underscores Axonius’ commitment to serving regulated and high-security environments.

“We have spent the last year assembling a leadership team with the operational rigor and public-company DNA to take Axonius to the next level,” said Joe Diamond, President and Interim CEO of Axonius. “Meghan is the next piece of that puzzle. She brings a rare combination of enterprise scale and startup agility, with a proven track record of building category-defining brands at companies like Orca Security and Palo Alto Networks. Meghan has the experience and proven vision to articulate our value as the one true source of truth for security and IT teams.”

These appointments reflect Axonius’ strategic investment in experienced leadership to capitalize on record momentum, expand market share, and solidify its position as a mature, market-leading cybersecurity platform.
