Cybersecurity company Sophos has announced a new partnership with Pax8, a leading cloud marketplace, to help businesses manage their security more easily.
This partnership gives more than 40,000 managed service providers (MSPs) in Pax8’s network access to Sophos’ full range of cybersecurity solutions.
MSPs can now find all their security needs in one place, including Sophos Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Sophos Endpoint with Intercept X, and Sophos Firewall.
This move aims to simplify cybersecurity management, reduce costs, and make it easier for businesses to protect themselves from cyber threats.
Making Security Management Easier
According to Sophos’ 2024 MSP Perspectives Report, businesses that use one security vendor instead of multiple ones can save up to 50% of their daily security management time. For those using six or more vendors, the time saved increases to 69%.
By teaming up with Pax8, Sophos is helping MSPs manage security from a single platform. This means: Less complexity in security management, Easier billing and purchasing through the Pax8 Marketplace, Better support and training for MSPs and Stronger security for Microsoft Defender customers using Sophos MDR
“Sophos and Pax8 are working together to give MSPs top security tools while making their jobs easier,” said Joe Levy, CEO of Sophos. “This partnership helps MSPs access the latest cybersecurity solutions quickly so they can better protect their customers.”
More Security, More Efficiency
Sophos’ AI-powered security solutions are backed by real-time threat intelligence from Sophos X-Ops, a team of security experts.
With over 28,000 organizations globally using Sophos MDR, the company provides automated threat detection and faster responses to cyberattacks.

For businesses using Microsoft Defender, Sophos offers 24/7 protection and tools to improve their cybersecurity while getting more value from their Microsoft services.
MSPs can use Sophos MDR as a full security service or as support for their own in-house teams, including coverage during nights and weekends, when cyberattacks often happen.
