Security Boulevard, Friday, October 23rd, 2026
Aembit profiles nine MCP security platforms across identity, gateways, runtime detection, tool authorization and discovery.
This vendor-authored Aembit post divides MCP security into identity and access control, gateway and routing, runtime threat detection, tool-level authorization and discovery of MCP servers and clients.
It recalls a 2025 Invariant Labs finding in which a malicious GitHub issue led an agent to leak private repository data through the official GitHub MCP server.
It profiles Aembit, Runlayer, Lasso Security, Invariant Labs/Snyk, Pillar Security, Wiz, TrueFoundry, MintMCP and Cisco AI Defense, ranking Aembit first.
It advises choosing by the problem to be solved, noting most organizations will need several capabilities.
