Sectigo Brings Certificate Lifecycle Management to Pax8 Marketplace for MSPs

Pax8 has added Sectigo to its cloud commerce marketplace, introducing a long-absent solution for Managed Service Providers: automated Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM). With this integration, Sectigo’s cloud-native platform—Certificate Manager for Partners—becomes the first CLM offering available on Pax8. The move targets a growing pain point for MSPs tasked with securing digital infrastructure while managing the increasing volume and complexity of SSL/TLS certificates.

Manual certificate management has become increasingly risky as businesses scale and certificate validity periods continue to shorten. A single expired certificate can disrupt operations, lead to compliance issues, or cause customer-facing outages. By offering automation through the ACME protocol, Sectigo eliminates these risks and reduces the workload on IT teams. MSPs can now oversee certificate issuance, renewal, and replacement from a unified dashboard—streamlining an essential, but often overlooked, security function.

The partnership also opens new business opportunities. MSPs can offer CLM as a recurring service to clients, boosting retention while reducing internal resource strain. By removing the manual overhead and associated risk, providers can deliver more value to a broader customer base without additional staffing or tools.

For Pax8, the addition strengthens its overall security portfolio, aligning with the platform’s focus on delivering scalable, efficient cloud services. For Sectigo, it creates a clear path to reach thousands of channel partners looking to automate and improve certificate-related operations across their customer environments.
