Model Context Protocol (MCP) Security: How to Restrict Tool Access Using AI Gateways

For too long, the Model Context Protocol (MCP) has operated on a principle of open access: connect an AI agent to an MCP server, and it gets access to every single tool that server offers. While this approach is simple for initial experimentation, it quickly becomes a liability in production.

How to Cut BI Ticket Backlogs with AI-ETL for Self-Serve Analysts

Top 5 AI-Powered SAST Tools for 2026

Static Application Security Testing has survived multiple cycles of skepticism, reinvention, and disappointment. For years, SAST was criticized for producing noise, slowing development, and failing to reflect real-world risk. Yet in 2026, SAST has not disappeared. It has changed its role. The shift is not that static analysis suddenly became perfect. It is that organizations finally stopped asking SAST to do the wrong job.

Why transparent AI is the only AI you can trust in QA

AI fosters speed. Transparency fosters confidence. AI for QA testing is suddenly everywhere. Every tool claims it’s “AI-powered.” Every demo promises smarter test generation, faster maintenance, and fewer bugs. Plus, with AI accelerating the pace at which developers write and ship code, QA leaders are under growing pressure to keep up. It makes sense that teams are looking for AI for QA testing. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: AI in QA only works if you can trust it.

Connect Your Local AI Model to Enterprise Databases with DreamFactory: A Real-World Integration Story

A mid-sized enterprise had a straightforward but powerful idea: use their locally-hosted AI model to automatically generate summaries of employee performance review data stored in their SQL Server database.

Scaling Personalization Engines Without Scaling Risk

Personalization engines sit at the core of most modern digital platforms. From content ranking to feature recommendations, AI-driven personalization shapes how users experience products at scale. When these systems work well, they feel invisible. Engagement improves, friction drops, and platforms grow efficiently. But as personalization engines scale, so does their influence, often in ways engineering teams do not fully anticipate at the outset.
