Despite recent market weakness in several sectors, CNBC's Jim Cramer said he sees a bull market in cybersecurity. "You always want to buy the stocks of companies in industries where demand is most rabid," Cramer said. MGM , Caesars , Johnson Controls and Clorox have faced recent hacks. Clorox took a huge earnings hit due to processing delays and product outages, Cramer noted. To Cramer, cybersecurity companies such as Palo Alto Networks , CrowdStrike , Okta and Zscaler may be very valuable with businesses willing to pay high prices to protect against hackers.
