MCP Vulnerability Management

Unizo's Vulnerability Management MCP Server provides a unified, extensible platform for integrating vulnerability management capabilities directly into AI agents and LLM clients through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Designed for security professionals and developers, this guide covers how to install, configure, and interact with the Unizo Vulnerability MCP server, with comprehensive support for vulnerability assessment, asset management, and security scan operations.

Overview

The Unizo Vulnerability Management MCP Server enables seamless integration of vulnerability management systems with AI agents through a standardized interface that abstracts the complexity of different security scanners.

Key Benefits

  • Unified Vulnerability Interface: Interact with multiple vulnerability management tools like Nessus, Qualys, Rapid7, and OpenVAS through a normalized set of MCP tools
  • AI Agent Compatibility: Fully compatible with Claude, GPT, and any other LLMs supporting the MCP protocol for automated security operations
  • Comprehensive Security Toolset: Full vulnerability lifecycle management with asset discovery, scan orchestration, and risk assessment capabilities
  • Enterprise Security Features: Built-in compliance reporting, CVSS scoring, and integration with security frameworks

Client Integration Flow

  1. Initialize the MCP Server

    • Use your preferred orchestrator (Claude Desktop, GPT MCP Plugin, etc.)
    • Load the MCP JSON config with the Unizo vulnerability management setup
    • Verify scanner integrations are active and accessible
  2. Query Available Tools - Comprehensive vulnerability management across your security infrastructure

    • Upon server initialization, all vulnerability management tools will be available to the agent
    • Tools automatically adapt to your configured scanner types and capabilities
  3. Execute Vulnerability Operations - AI-driven security assessment and remediation

    • Use list_vulnerabilities and list_assets for discovery and inventory
    • Create targeted scans with create_scan for specific assets or vulnerability types
    • Generate comprehensive risk reports with prioritized remediation guidance
    • Server handles scanner-specific API differences transparently

Observability & Logging

All interactions are logged with full context and correlation metadata.
