Chuks T. Awunor

Cybersecurity practitioner with an M.S. in Computer Science and EC-Council Certified Security Analyst (CSA) certification. Founder of GuardsArm, a cybersecurity platform built to help organizations strengthen their security posture through practical, enterprise-grade security solutions.

After more than a decade working in cybersecurity consulting, I noticed a recurring challenge: organizations were investing heavily in security technologies. Still, they often lacked the expertise, visibility, and strategic guidance needed to use them effectively. As a result, many remained exposed to risks despite significant security investments.

In 2020, I founded GuardsArm with a clear mission: to make enterprise-grade cybersecurity accessible to organizations of all sizes. By combining advanced security capabilities with expert guidance and ongoing support, GuardsArm helps organizations build stronger, more resilient security programs that address real-world threats.

Today, I remain personally involved in every client engagement, ensuring organizations receive experienced, senior-level cybersecurity leadership tailored to their unique business and compliance requirements.

"Working directly with Chuks meant I had senior-level expertise on every call. No explaining my concerns to an account manager who then had to explain it to someone else. When we had a critical security issue, I had the founder himself on the phone within 15 minutes. That kind of access is priceless."
