Zscaler launched its Agentic SOC, an AI-first security operations platform combining proprietary telemetry, a decoy network, and zero trust controls with third-party tools. The platform uses AI agents co-developed with Anthropic and OpenAI, trained on a decade of SOC experience and powered by more than 750 billion daily zero trust transactions. The launch aims to automate complex threat investigation and response at machine speed. For investors, the key question is whether Zscaler's AI investments will translate into higher recurring revenue whilst the company remains unprofitable. Zscaler's narrative projects $5.1 billion revenue and $132 million earnings by 2029. However, some analysts worry that acquisitions and aggressive AI investment could keep margins subdued even with continued revenue growth.
