In March 2024, the European Union passed the AI Act. This sweeping regulation reshapes how organizations deploy and manage AI systems. The law addresses AI risks that could affect both individuals and businesses, from hiring biases to critical infrastructure failures. Similar rules have started taking shape across the world, including several state-based regulations in the US. But the regulation is only the floor. We all share the responsibility of creating a safe, responsible AI future.

APIs need strong security. They often handle sensitive data like financial records or health information. To protect this data while meeting privacy rules (like GDPR and HIPAA), fine-grained access control (FGAC) is key. FGAC uses OAuth scopes and claims to manage API access.

The era of generative AI is upon us, and large language models (LLMs) like Claude are demonstrating incredible potential to revolutionize how businesses operate and interact with customers. However, to truly unlock this potential, AI needs secure and standardized access to the wealth of information and services locked within enterprise systems. This is where standards such as Model Context Protocol (MCP) come in, offering a powerful way to make enterprise resources AI-consumable.
