Pax8 to Add inforcer to Its Marketplace for Microsoft 365

Pax8 will add inforcer to the Pax8 Marketplace as part of a collaboration that makes the vendor available through Pax8. The move matters because it creates another route for service providers to standardize and manage Microsoft 365 security and governance capabilities delivered through the platform.

The companies tied the planned availability to demand for ongoing governance, compliance, and operational guardrails rather than point-in-time deployments. Pax8 research cited in the release said 62% of SMBs report using AI today, while 18.5% say they use it extensively across multiple functions, and 84% say they would trust an outside technology advisor to help implement AI.

Inforcer is described as a platform that standardizes Microsoft 365 security and data governance across tenants. It automates configuration and monitoring compliance in real time and includes policy drift detection. The release also lists capabilities for Copilot Readiness Assessments, Copilot Manager, and Shadow AI detection intended to assess preparedness, govern deployments, and monitor usage patterns across customer environments.

Pax8 said inforcer will launch on the Pax8 Marketplace this summer, following Pax8’s Beyond 2026 conference. “Prerequisite for MSPs today is quick and responsible AI adoption, which requires firm foundations in security and governance,” said Oguo Atuanya, Corporate Vice President of Vendor Experience at Pax8. “By adding inforcer to the Pax8 Marketplace, we’re giving our partners a powerful way to standardize Microsoft 365 environments. This practical enablement supports the ecosystem as it transitions to managed intelligence and AI becomes a day-to-day reality for small businesses.”

In a second quote included in the release, Jamie Daum, CEO of inforcer, said, “MSPs need more leverage and reduced complexity,” said Jamie Daum, CEO of inforcer. “Joining the Pax8 Marketplace makes it easier for MSPs to adopt inforcer as the platform underpinning their Microsoft services, standardizing security and governance across customers, proving compliance continuously and building packaged offerings around Copilot readiness and managed AI. We’re excited about what this availability unlocks for Pax8 partners and the SMBs they support.” The release also said inforcer has grown to 1,200+ MSP partners since a launch in 2023.
