Three leading enterprise vendors—ServiceNow, Rubrik, and Microsoft—have integrated governance enforcement directly at the Model Context Protocol (MCP) layer, making MCP the control plane that governs AI agent actions across server lifecycle, data access, and network policies. This marks a shift from governance at model or application layers to protocol-level enforcement, addressing issues like unauthorized AI tool use within enterprises.
