Overview

What is Bright Security Mcp?

Bright Security Mcp is a remote, cloud-hosted MCP server that brings AI‑powered application security testing into your development workflow. Your AI coding assistant can discover API endpoints, run security scans, and review vulnerabilities — all through natural language conversation. There is nothing to install locally; you simply point your MCP‑compatible client at Bright’s endpoint and authenticate with an API key.

How to use Bright Security Mcp?

Create a dedicated Bright API key (personal, project, or organization‑level).
Configure your MCP client (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Augment Code, or any generic MCP client) to connect to https://app.brightsec.com/mcp using SSE transport with the Authorization: Api-Key YOUR_API_KEY header.
Ask your AI assistant a natural language question such as “Scan https://my-app.example.com for security vulnerabilities” – the assistant will then use the available tools to perform the action.

FAQ from Bright Security Mcp

Is Bright Security Mcp installed locally?

No. Bright Security Mcp is a remote, cloud‑hosted MCP server. You only configure your client to connect to https://app.brightsec.com/mcp and authenticate with an API key.

How do I authenticate my AI assistant with Bright?

You provide an API key in the Authorization header when configuring the MCP client. The format is Api-Key YOUR_API_KEY. The key can be personal, project, or organization‑level.

Can I scan applications that are not publicly accessible?

Yes. Bright uses Repeaters – lightweight agents that route scan traffic from Bright’s cloud through your local network. You create a repeater via the createRepeater tool and start it with the Bright CLI.

What security tests can be run?

Bright exposes various security tests (e.g., SQL injection, XSS, CSRF). You can list all available tests using the listTests tool and choose which to include in a scan.

Are there any data residency considerations?

If your organization uses a dedicated Bright cluster, replace app.brightsec.com in the server URL with your cluster’s hostname. Otherwise, all data is processed on Bright’s cloud platform.
