Nord Security Expands Privacy and Security Channel with Pax8 MSP Cloud Marketplace

By Arti Loftus

One of the fastest-growing cloud marketplaces in the world, Pax8, today announced they have added Nord Security offerings to their e-commerce platform, which MSPs have been adopting in record numbers given how much simpler and streamlined it is to discover, provision, and implement solutions over 10,000 MSPs bring to over 100,000 SMEs around the world.

Nord Security, which is known for their broadly installed NordVPN, has listed their next-generation password manager NordPass, along with their advanced network access security solution NordLayer, a Secure Access Service Edge solution (SASE) with Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) features.

Pax8 will offer its partners two key products in the Nord Security portfolio, including NordLayer and NordPass. This agreement is Nord Security's first entry into the IT channel market through a distribution partner.

"Security is a huge focus for Pax8, and we are committed to partnering with the leading security vendors to enable MSPs to create the most comprehensive technology stack for their clients," said Ryan Walsh, Chief Operating Officer at Pax8. "Nord Security provides one of the most advanced security solutions in the industry and has been recognized by some of the most influential IT security specialists and tech sites. We are thrilled to add NordLayer and NordPass to our suite of solutions."

"Nord Security is excited to be launching with Pax8 to make NordLayer and NordPass immediately available to Pax8's ever-expanding MSP community," said David Nutt, SVP of North America at Nord Security. “MSPs and their customers will see instant benefits. Pax8 is a key partner and is central to expanding Nord Security's commitment to our partner-led strategy."

Nord Security has extensive knowledge in building advanced cybersecurity solutions. As part of the agreement, Pax8 will offer partners the following solutions:

NordLayer – An ISO-certified adaptive network-access security solution that helps transition businesses to SASE (Secure Access Service Edge), implement zero trust, and leave outdated legacy solutions behind. NordLayer focuses on securing data from the device to the destination. Whereas many cybersecurity companies focus on the endpoint, NordLayer secures the journey. This includes the journey to/from the cloud, applications, and site-to-site, all through a single gateway without the need for multiple solutions or products. The product offers 24/7 support, centralized billing for all NordLayer subscriptions, and centralized settings/security policy enforcement.

NordPass – An innovative password manager with state-of-the-art encryption, MFA, and zero-knowledge architecture. NordPass shifts to proactive breach management with the native data breach scanner within the Security Dashboard to know which users are posing potential risks to corporate data, get detailed security insights, see breached domains, and assess password strength. The intuitive user interface facilitates smooth and swift onboarding procedures, while the enhanced cybersecurity vastly improves the security of cyber insurance.

Pax8’s disruptive platform displaces legacy distribution by connecting the channel ecosystem to its transactional cloud marketplace, with an advanced operational, multi-faceted platform than includes billing, provisioning, automation, industry-leading PSA integrations, pre- and post-sales support, and education.
