WTF is Model Context Protocol (MCP) and why should publishers care?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a buzzword gaining more traction, especially as publishers think about how to prepare for the agentic web.

Securing the backbone of agentic AI with MCP

The model context protocol (MCP) was only introduced at the end of 2024, but the technological consequences are already clearly noticeable in many architectures. MCP provides a standardised “language” for LLM agents so that developers do not have to laboriously program every interface by hand. This allows them to flexibly compile and use tools, databases and SaaS services like building blocks. One example of the use of MCP in cyber security is t…

Secure Agent-Protocol Interactions: A Specification for Canonical EVM MCP Implementations

Introduction As computational agents become increasingly capable of autonomous decision-making, a new class of network participants is emerging that could interact with Ethereum protocols at unprecedented scale and sophistication. However, current approaches to agent-blockchain integration suffer from fundamental security vulnerabilities that make safe autonomous operation impossible. This post proposes a draft proposal for canonical Model Conte…

MCP: securing the backbone of Agentic AI

MCP makes agentic AI flexible - but also vulnerable. For CISOs, visibility, control and secure workflows are crucial for trust and resilience.
