The Future Beyond Frontends:  Are We Ready for an Agentic Internet? As we stand on the brink of a transformative era in technology, the rise of AI agents is signaling the decline of traditional frontends. This document explores the implications of an agentic internet, where intelligent agents operate autonomously on our behalf, reshaping our interaction with digital systems. We delve into the necessary changes in infrastructure, protocols, and ethical considerations that must be addressed as we transition from human-driven interfaces to a world where agents think, decide, and act. The Shift from Human-Driven Interaction The current internet is designed for human interaction, relying heavily on graphical user interfaces, clicks, and forms. However, as AI agents become more sophisticated, the need for these traditional frontends diminishes. Instead, we are moving towards a paradigm where applications are no longer bound by visual interfaces but are instead orchestrated by intelligent...

This document outlines the security threats associated with the deployment of Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) in enterprise environments. As organizations increasingly rely on AI technologies, understanding the potential vulnerabilities and risks is essential for maintaining data integrity and compliance. The analysis highlights key areas of concern, including tool poisoning, data exfiltration, and compliance with data privacy regulations. Security Threats Overview Security is paramount when deploying MCP in a large enterprise, and while the protocol includes some security considerations, large-scale deployment introduces significant risks and vulnerabilities. The MCP design anticipates explicit user authorization for sensitive actions, with the Host application initiating connections and approving servers. The Client can enforce security policies and sandboxing; however, potential vulnerabilities exist, particularly with remote server deployments. Key Risk Areas Tool Pois...
