Gartner Hype Cycle for AI and Cybersecurity

Cynet Joins the Pax8 Marketplace: Enabling MSPs to Rapidly Scale Enterprise-Grade Cybersecurity to SMBs. 

Small and mid-sized businesses face the same ransomware crews, phishing kits, and AI-assisted attacks as the Fortune 500. What they don’t have is the Fortune 500 security budget, 24×7 SOC, or roster of specialists to defend multiple attack points simultaneously. That gap is where attackers live, and it’s exactly where MSPs are being asked to step up.  

Cynet is now available on the Pax8 Marketplace. 

Cynet is now available on the Pax8 Marketplace, bringing enterprise-grade attack path management and our 24×7 MDR team to the purchasing platform MSPs already trust. With one click, MSPs can now add Cynet’s Unified, AI-Powered Cybersecurity Platform to the same procurement workflow they run every day and finally give their SMB clients the defense they deserve. No separate vendor portals. No fragmented billing. And initial setup that takes just minutes, not days. 

The Problem We’re Solving 

MSPs are under enormous pressure. Cyber threats targeting SMBs are surging. 43% of all cyberattacks now target small businesses, and 88% of ransomware attacks in 2025 hit SMBs hardest. At the same time, client expectations are rising, talent is scarce, and margins are tight. 

And yet, too many MSPs are still managing security through a patchwork of disconnected vendor relationships, separate billing cycles, and manual provisioning workflows. Every additional vendor portal is another source of friction. Friction that slows deployment, complicates billing, and makes it harder to standardize security delivery across customer environments. 

What This Partnership Means for MSPs 

By bringing Cynet to the Pax8 Marketplace, we’re removing the barriers that have made enterprise-grade security harder to deploy than it needs to be. 

MSPs can now add Cynet to their existing Pax8 stack in just a few clicks. There are no separate contract negotiations, no siloed vendor onboarding. Faster purchase means faster protection for your clients. 

“Partnering with Pax8 reflects our commitment to being the easiest security platform for MSPs to operationalize, from procurement to response, with predictable billing and volume-based margins.” -Jason Magee, CEO, Cynet 

Billing is consolidated and predictable. Cynet joins the rest of your Pax8 portfolio in a single, unified billing experience. Monthly consumption-based billing means your costs scale with your business. Fewer invoices, fewer reconciliation headaches, and better financial predictability. 

Provisioning is automated. Provisioning is faster than ever. Getting started with Cynet through Pax8 takes just minutes, no lengthy onboarding cycles, no back-and-forth setup. Once you’re up and running, your team manages client environments directly from the Cynet console, giving you full control without the procurement friction. 

Go-to-market support is built-in. Pax8 partners gain access to go-to-market enablement programs, brand visibility, and MSP marketing support. And all of this is designed to help you bring Cynet to more clients faster. 

Global commerce is supported. With multi-currency and global commerce capabilities, this integration supports MSPs operating across regions, helping you scale without friction. 

The Security MSPs Can Now Standardize Across Every Client 

This integration isn’t just a procurement story. It’s about what MSPs can now deliver, consistently, at scale, and across every customer environment. 

“MSPs are being asked to defend against enterprise-grade attacks with a fraction of the resources, and AI-driven threats are only widening that gap. By bringing differentiated AI-powered defense to the Pax8 marketplace, we’re closing that gap on day one, turning deployment from days into minutes.” -Jason Magee, CEO, Cynet 

Cynet is the leading unified, AI-powered cybersecurity platform purpose-built for MSPs. From a single platform and a single agent, your team gets complete coverage across endpoints, networks, users, email, identity, SaaS, and cloud. On top of that, you get built-in XDR, automated response, and 24×7 MDR from CyOps security experts included at no additional cost. 

Why Marketplaces Are the Future of the MSP Channel 

MSPs are moving toward centralized, cloud-first procurement models, and Pax8 is leading that transformation with a global network of over 40,000 MSPs. 

For Cynet, joining the Pax8 Marketplace reflects our commitment to being the platform MSPs can actually operationalize, not just in the security console, but across the full lifecycle of procurement, provisioning, and ongoing management.
