Why it matters
Publicly exposed MCP servers can provide unauthorized access to connected internal systems and data, making network isolation and explicit authorization important defensive controls.
OpenVPN's MCP security guide recommends keeping internal MCP servers off the public internet and restricting access to authenticated, authorized users and agents. The guide describes private access through outbound-only CloudConnexa Connectors and application-specific user-group permissions.
