Pax8 expands cybersecurity offerings with Check Point suite

Techday NZ10-06-2025
Pax8 has announced that Check Point Software Technologies is expanding its cybersecurity portfolio on the Pax8 Marketplace, giving managed service providers enhanced access to a range of AI-powered, cloud-delivered security solutions.
Portfolio expansion
The expansion will make a broad suite of Check Point security solutions available to Pax8 partners worldwide. The newly integrated offerings include Harmony Email & Collaboration, Harmony SASE, Harmony Endpoint, Harmony Mobile, Harmony Browse, and Infinity MDR.
According to the company, Harmony Email & Collaboration delivers email security with what the companies state are 99.2% catch rates for threats using both artificial intelligence and human intelligence. Harmony SASE offers internet security, Zero Trust Access, and optimised SD-WAN performance, as well as mobile, browser, and SaaS security. Harmony Endpoint consolidates EPP, EDR, and XDR capabilities within a single client. Harmony Mobile addresses mobile device protection across apps, files, networks, and operating systems. Harmony Browse is aimed at web threat prevention across devices. Infinity MDR provides infrastructure monitoring and incident response through access to Check Point's analysts and incident response staff.
Partner access
Oguo Atuanya, Corporate Vice President of Vendor Experience at Pax8, said the expansion would strengthen the company's global partner ecosystem, enabling managed service providers (MSPs) to access the majority of Check Point's security solutions.
"The expansion of Check Point's portfolio on our Marketplace represents a significant milestone in our partnership and underscores our commitment to delivering enterprise-level security solutions to our MSPs," said Atuanya. "Our partners will now have access to the majority of Check Point's security ecosystem - from email and endpoint protection to cloud security and SASE solutions - all managed through a single, intuitive platform. This unified approach enables MSPs to deliver cybersecurity strategies to their SMB clients, while streamlining operations and driving greater profitability."
Technology integration
The company says all products will be delivered through the Check Point Infinity Platform, a central interface enabling management and monitoring of security operations, tracking threats and attacker behaviours, and managing incidents across network, endpoint, email, cloud, and IoT environments.
Shahar Divon, Director of WW MSSP & SMB Sales at Check Point, commented on the partnership's aim to support MSPs.
"This integration demonstrates our commitment to supporting MSPs with enterprise-grade security solutions," said Divon. "By bringing our technologies to Pax8's single Marketplace, we're empowering partners to deliver cybersecurity strategies that protect their clients across all attack vectors, while simplifying management and driving business growth."

Lindsay Zwart steps in to lead APAC for Pax8 amid leadership shift

Lindsay Zwart has been appointed as Executive Vice President and General Manager for APAC at Pax8. Zwart, who previously held senior positions with Vodafone, Microsoft, and IBM, assumes responsibility for all aspects of Pax8's business strategy and operations in the Asia-Pacific region. She reports directly to Nick Heddy, President and Chief Commerce Officer at Pax8. Her appointment comes as the company seeks to scale its cloud commerce operations and broaden market reach within APAC. Zwart brings nearly twenty years of experience in technology sector leadership roles, including digital transformation and enterprise solutions, both in APAC and internationally. Leadership transition The new appointment coincides with a shift in roles for Chris Sharp, who transitions from his previous focus on local business to a newly created position as Senior Vice President of Business Development on a global scale. Sharp will now report to Craig Donovan, Chief Experience Officer at Pax8. In his new role, Sharp will be responsible for identifying and leading strategic opportunities, such as partnerships, new market entries, and other initiatives designed to support organisational growth. Sharp's previous efforts have centred on the launch and expansion of Pax8 in Australia and New Zealand, helping to drive momentum in the region over the last four years. The company states that this realignment leverages Sharp's expertise in strategic planning and operational leadership, extending his impact across Pax8's worldwide business strategy. Nick Heddy commented on the company's focus and leadership changes. "Lindsay's appointment signals our unwavering commitment to the Asia-Pacific market and our confidence in the region's tremendous potential. This announcement also marks a strategic realignment as Pax8 prepares for its next growth phase in the APAC region in which Lindsay will work closely alongside global leaders, including Chris Sharp and Ryan Walsh. Her proven leadership, strategic vision, and operational excellence will be instrumental in unlocking new opportunities and accelerating our growth trajectory. I am confident that under her leadership, our APAC operations will reach unprecedented levels of success." Zwart's experience Prior to joining Pax8, Lindsay Zwart held the position of Chief Enterprise Officer at Vodafone New Zealand. There, she led digital transformation initiatives by guiding local enterprises in adopting 5G, IoT, and cloud technologies. Previously, Zwart worked at Microsoft, where her roles included US Chief Operating Officer and General Manager of the Cloud and Enterprise business, General Manager for Azure in the US, and overseeing Dynamics, SMB, and Partner Channel Operations. She also held leadership roles at IBM. Commenting on her new role, Zwart stated, "Pax8 is a proven force in the industry with its innovative Marketplace driving change and laying the foundation for MSP success. I look forward to bringing my experience in tech and with this region to Pax8 to continue the exciting growth trajectory the company has been on since we launched here in 2022. The region is perfectly positioned for success in the MSP space with strong leadership, enablement, and resources provided via the Pax8 Marketplace. It's an exciting time to join the company to continue to make a positive impact on the partner community!" Zwart's remit includes working with the existing APAC team to identify growth opportunities and strengthen partner engagement across the region. She will also coordinate closely with the company's global leadership team, including Chris Sharp and Ryan Walsh. Business development outlook Sharp's new global business development role is intended to focus on creating new partnerships and expanding Pax8's geographical presence. His appointment builds on his four-year tenure leading local momentum and will see him apply his experience to advancing organisational strategy on an international scale. Pax8 operates a cloud commerce Marketplace that serves managed service providers throughout the region and beyond, supporting business growth and product adoption across its ecosystem.
