Cybersecurity

"Far be it from me to accuse Anthropic of this. When they designed MCP, the idea was to quickly and easily extend chat interfaces with tool functionality (and a whole bunch of other stuff that folks ignore in the protocol!). For that context, it’s actually a good fit for the job (bar some caveats that can easily be fixed).

No, the dünnbrettbohrer of the MCP world are the implementers of the MCP servers themselves. Right now, it’s the peak of the hype cycle of inflated expectations, meaning a lot of people are selling low-code, or no-code, dressed up as MCP — but it’s still the same old shenanigans under the hood.

What I would like to achieve today is to give you simple guidance on when, how, and where to use MCP without shooting yourself in the foot (such as with Github’s latest MCP server disaster, an exploit that left private repository data vulnerable to attackers)."
