Why AI Agents Need Their Own Identity: Lessons from OWASP's MCP Security Guide

The recently released OWASP, “A Practical Guide for Securely Using Third-Party MCP Servers,” highlights a fundamental challenge in modern AI deployments: how do we govern, secure, and audit systems that are inherently non-deterministic? Unlike traditional, static software, AI agents dynamically adapt their execution paths, tool selection, and decisions based on context and real-time resources, allowing the same agent to achieve identical goals through entirely different approaches.

KAi Just Got a Major Upgrade, Powered by the New Kong Konnect MCP Server

KAi, the AI assistant inside Kong Konnect, just got significantly more capable. Today, we're announcing an enhanced beta version powered by the new Kong Konnect MCP Server — a shared infrastructure layer that also opens up your API platform to IDE copilots and custom agents. The result? KAi can now do things it couldn't before, and those same capabilities are available wherever you work. If you've used KAi before, you'll notice the difference immediately.

What is a MCP Gateway? The Missing Piece for Enterprise AI Infrastructure

AI agents are spreading across organizations rapidly. Each agent needs secure access to different Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Authentication becomes complex. Scaling creates bottlenecks. The dreaded "too many endpoints" problem emerges. You face a classic AI infrastructure headache. The numbers tell the story. Organizations using AI in at least one business function jumped from 55% to 78% in just one year. Generative AI usage specifically rose from 33% in 2023 to 71% in 2024.

Realtime steering: interrupt, barge-in, redirect, and guide the AI

Start typing, change your mind, redirect the AI mid-response. It just works. That is the promise of realtime steering. Users expect to interrupt an answer, correct its direction, or inject new instructions on the fly without losing context or restarting the session. It feels simple, but delivering it requires low-latency control signals, reliable cancellation, and shared conversational state that survives disconnects and device switches.

Tableau MCP vs. Databox MCP: Enterprise Control vs. AI-Native Speed

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is reshaping business intelligence. It provides the technical standard for a new class of generative BI tools that let you talk to your data. The engine behind this revolution is the MCP server—the essential component that connects AI models (like Claude or Cursor) to a company’s data. This article examines Tableau’s official MCP server vs. Databox MCP to help you decide between a traditional BI add-on and an AI-native headless platform.

How To Use Copilot In Software Testing: A Practical Guide For Testers

Software testing is critical in assessing the quality of apps, testers oftentimes have to deal with limited resources when it comes to creating tests, as well as repetitively creating tests for all feature coverage. These factors lead to a significant reduction in both the speed of development and efficiency in the testing process.

Appian Supercharges SAP with Serious AI

If you’re an SAP customer, you’ve probably heard the same pitch more than once: just wait a little longer. Your migration to S/4HANA will unlock the agility you need. Your SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) investments will catch up soon. Your workflows will get faster. Your data will become more accessible. Just a little more time. But what if you can’t wait? What if your supply chain teams are buried under manual work?

Peeking Under the Hood with Claude Code

Claude is one of the go-to AI-native code editors for developers. Because it's a simple chatbot interface housed inside a familiar CLI, it provides a pretty smooth path between traditional IDEs and agentic AI. But what's actually happening behind the scenes when you ask it to write code, generate a test, or debug an issue? Who and what is it talking to behind the scenes? Can I prevent data leakage or do I need to add another layer to my tin foil hat? To answer these questions, I used proxymock to inspect the network traffic flowing from the Claude IDE.

From suggestions to fixes: How Bitrise AI lets teams ship faster with control

For many developers, AI coding assistants are already as fundamental as a terminal window or version control system. Data from DORA shows that 90% of IT professionals are using AI at work. StackOverflow’s 2025 Developer Survey found that over half of professional developers use AI daily.

Talk to Your Test Data: Improve Test Data Management with the Perforce Delphix MCP Server

Many technology leaders face a persistent bottleneck: delivering the right data to the right people at the right time. Despite significant investments in test data management and automation, developers often wait for database refreshes, compliance checks, and answers from infrastructure teams. These delays directly reduce development velocity. A recent shift has occurred in how developers work. AI agents, such as Claude Desktop and Cursor, are now essential coding tools.
