TOP 10 – PREDICTIONS FOR 2026

COMPANY IN FOCUS: ZSCALER

CEO: JAY CHAUDHRY FOUNDED: 2007

Zscaler’ s zero trust architecture delivers end-to-end protection for cloud, hybrid and remote environments by verifying user identity and device trust before granting access only to specific applications rather than entire networks. The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange integrates with leading identity providers, inspects all traffic – including encrypted – and uses AI-driven analytics to block malware, ransomware and phishing threats in real time. Features like app-level microsegmentation, continuous verification and digital experience monitoring minimise the risk of lateral movement and breaches – all features of increasing importance as we look ahead to 2026.
