The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is quickly becoming a foundational layer for AI systems. It enables large language models and AI agents to interact with external tools and data sources over standardized JSON-RPC interfaces. By doing so, MCP transforms how intelligent applications consume APIs. Reading local files, controlling IoT devices, orchestrating backend workflows—MCP servers act as structured gateways between AI and your business logic.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has pioneered a new interface layer between AI agents and tools. It has become easier to enable seamless access to external services, APIs, workflows, and data with natural language. MCP servers are now powering the decentralization of AI intelligence and orchestrating the interplay among modern AI systems. In doing so, they also introduce a more open, fluid, and automation-driven attack surface. However, traditional API security models weren’t built for this.
