ConnectWise, the leading software company dedicated to the success of Managed Service Providers (MSPs), and Pax8, the leading cloud commerce marketplace, are excited to announce a strategic partnership to offer ConnectWise’s Managed Detection and Response (MDR)™ solution within the Pax8 Marketplace. ConnectWise’s recent acquisition of two leading data protection companies, Axcient and SkyKick, is already available in the Pax8 Marketplace. Now, the company is extending its MDR service to MSPs, providing an additional layer of protection for Pax8’s cybersecurity partners.
Considering the rising number of cybersecurity incidents, it is critical for MSPs to protect their clients’ data and assets while staying ahead of evolving threats. Detection and response capabilities have become essential to an MSP’s cybersecurity stack, yet finding in-house expertise and ensuring proactive threat detection can be daunting. To address these challenges, ConnectWise and Pax8 have teamed up to deliver reliable, comprehensive cybersecurity through ConnectWise MDR™.
