The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is becoming increasingly important in enabling and expanding the capabilities of agents. By allowing agents to take actions on behalf of users, MCP raises critical questions around authentication and authorization. In this webcast, we will dissect the challenges of secure delegation, explore various approaches to authentication and authorization, and discuss potential security risks and best practices for mitigating them.
