MCP Governance

MCP governance refers to the oversight and control frameworks applied to Model Context Protocol implementations within enterprise AI systems. This matters for AI governance because MCPs act as bridges between language models and external data sources or tools, creating potential security, data integrity, and compliance risks that must be actively managed. Organizations need robust governance policies around MCP authentication, data access controls, and audit logging to ensure these integrations meet regulatory requirements and maintain AI system transparency and accountability.
