Faster, Smarter Access to Your Exposure Data with MCP Server

Published at : 18 Dec 2025

Join Rob Gibson, VP of Product at Nucleus, as he walks through the new Nucleus MCP Server and shows how it accelerates access to vulnerability and exposure data through your preferred AI tools.

Rob demonstrates how to connect an AI client (using Augment in VS Code for this demo) to a remote MCP server, authenticate, and immediately begin interacting with Nucleus data. The video highlights how MCP respects user permissions, synthesizes insights across projects, prioritizes risk, and provides actionable recommendations.

You’ll see how MCP enables faster investigations, guided remediation, and richer context without manual querying. Rob also previews future enhancements, including automated, AI-driven actions within Nucleus using upcoming MCP tools.
