Defense.com MCP Server
Defense.com is an XDR cybersecurity platform that uses MCP internally to power its built-in AI assistants. No public MCP endpoint is currently documented.
Defense.com is an XDR (Extended Detection and Response) cybersecurity platform that unifies threat intelligence, SIEM, vulnerability scanning, endpoint protection, penetration testing data, and external attack surface monitoring in a single console. The company describes its AI features as being "Powered by MCP," referring to Anthropic's Model Context Protocol, which it uses as the internal connector between its AI assistants and the platform's security data sources.
The MCP integration powers three Defense.com-hosted AI experiences: an AI Analyst that adds context to alerts, identifies false positives, and recommends mitigations mapped to specific assets; an AI Trainer that converts real threats into conversational security training exercises for staff; and an AI Consultant that delivers service reviews, compliance guidance (GDPR, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials), and auditable remediation records.
Important caveat: based on public documentation as of May 2026, Defense.com has not published a public MCP server URL, GitHub repository, npm package, or configuration guide that lets external MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, etc.) connect to the Defense.com platform. The "Powered by MCP" branding refers to MCP being used inside the Defense.com product, not a customer-consumable MCP endpoint. Customers who need MCP-style access today should contact Defense.com directly to ask about API access or roadmap plans.
No public MCP endpoint documented
As of May 2026, Defense.com has not published a public MCP server URL, GitHub repository, or configuration JSON that external MCP clients can use. The "Powered by MCP" branding refers to MCP being embedded inside the Defense.com platform to power its own AI Analyst, AI Trainer, and AI Consultant features.
How to use Defense.com's MCP-powered AI today
- Sign up for a Defense.com account at defense.com (28-day free trial available for up to 5 users).
- Access the built-in AI Analyst, AI Trainer, and AI Consultant from inside the Defense.com console.
- The MCP layer is internal and managed by Defense.com, so no client-side configuration is required.

Defense.com offers a REST API and webhook integrations for tools like Jira, Slack, AWS GuardDuty, Azure Activity Logs, and Microsoft 365. See the Defense.com integrations page and the Help Centre for current API documentation. To request a customer-facing MCP server or roadmap details, contact Defense.com directly through their website.
Placeholder config (not officially supported)
No official config JSON exists. Do not connect to a third-party "defense.com MCP" repo on GitHub without verifying provenance, as these are not maintained by Defense.com.
