MCP releases enterprise authorization extension for centralized AI agent access control
By
Frederic Lardinois
Summary
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has released a stable "Enterprise-Managed Authorization" extension that allows enterprises to centrally control MCP server access through their existing identity provider, rather than requiring employees to individually click through OAuth prompts for each server. Anthropic and Microsoft are among the first to support this feature in their clients, including Claude and potentially other platforms.
