MCP workflows can accelerate infrastructure operations, but only if every action path is continuously verified and bounded by policy.
Zero trust principles that matter most
- Verify every request at execution time, not only at session start.
- Enforce least privilege per connector and per workflow stage.
- Require human approval for high-impact write operations.
Teams should prioritize guardrails that scale under pressure: deny-by-default writes, scoped identities, and fast approval routing for critical incidents.
