How this fits the existing thesis

Parent thesis: Enterprise cybersecurity is undergoing a platform consolidation wave, with CrowdStrike reporting earnings amid high expectations for its AI-native security suite and Palo Alto Networks integrating CyberArk to secure AI agents across enterprise networks. Zscaler, despite a negative market reaction to strong results, remains a core zero-trust infrastructure play. Palantir's Foundry platform extension through 2035 with a major construction firm underscores the stickiness of AI-driven security and data analytics platforms in enterprise workflows.
