How MCP Servers Can Expose Enterprise Secrets

MCP servers can expose enterprise secrets through plaintext configuration files, over-permissioned access and prompt injection, often before security teams even know the server is running. As more organizations adopt AI agents into their systems, that exposure can silently become a major gap in MCP server security. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) allows AI agents to reach the tools and data,
