AI Agents without Standards and Security
AI agents and MCP unlock powerful automation, but most enterprises lack the identity foundation to support them. Without standards-based discovery and predictable metadata, MCP quickly becomes fragile, risky, and nearly impossible to scale securely. Agents then rely on ad-hoc discovery, MCP servers expose sensitive APIs, and workloads shift unpredictably between human and machine contexts.
Impact
MCP Becomes Too Risky to Deploy
Without standardized discovery and stable metadata, AI agents may not be able to consume your MCP servers. Sensitive APIs become exposed, and machine clients sprawl without control. As AI clients scale into the thousands, gaps amplify, governance collapses, and MCP becomes too risky to deploy—stalling automation and putting enterprises behind stronger, standards-based competitors.
