Why it matters

OWASP’s MCP glossary gives defenders a shared vocabulary for reviewing security controls around AI applications connected to external tools, data, and workflows.

OWASP’s MCP Security Testing Guide glossary defines MCP and AI-security terminology for builders, reviewers, red teamers, and governance teams. The reference explains MCP components and emphasizes permissions, data access, tool execution, logging, and user consent rather than disclosing a specific vulnerability or new research finding.
