Down as much as 55% from the peak to the trough and over 20% in 2026, it may be time to buy cybersecurity stocks like Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ: PANW) and Zscaler (NASDAQ: ZS). While valuation concerns plagued and may continue to plague these markets, their share prices are trading at long-term lows and unlikely to fall significantly further.
Not only are their growth trajectories robust, but long-term forecasts likely underestimate their strengths in a world driven by accelerating digitization, penetration of digital services, regulatory requirements, and AI. While AI drives efficiency, automation, and results for businesses and enterprises, it’s doing the same for cybercriminals.
