# Research Review Combines Agentic AI and Zero Trust

A 2026 research review proposes combining Zero Trust Architecture with agentic AI to automate continuous risk assessment, identity management, threat response, and policy enforcement across distributed cloud environments. This is a market and technology signal, not a solicitation, contract award, or government program. For procurement teams and contractors, it highlights a potential cybersecurity capability area while underscoring the need to evaluate explainability, model reliability, response latency, and human oversight before adopting or proposing such systems.

- Buyers can use these evaluation factors when assessing AI-enabled cybersecurity offerings for distributed cloud environments.
- Contractors serving organizations with these needs may find opportunities to develop or integrate capabilities for continuous risk assessment, identity management, threat response, and policy enforcement.
- The review does not identify a specific agency requirement, procurement vehicle, funding source, or acquisition timeline.
