Products: MCP Security module, Agent-proxy gateway. 7 dated facts, prices and two checks, each sourced, read 5 November 2026. Source: https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/akto Site: Agent MCP Directory Last reviewed: 2026-11-05 # Akto: MCP vendor profile Akto's MCP Security module finds MCP servers in a company's networks, probes them for prompt injection, tool poisoning and excessive permissions, and can route MCP tool calls through an inspecting agent-proxy, as documented by the vendor. Akto MCP Recon discovers MCP-compatible servers by scanning IP ranges given in CIDR or range form and registers what it finds in Akto (ai-security-docs.akto.io). ## At a glance | Listed as | Akto (MCP Security) | | --- | --- | | Type | Security scanners | | Also covers | gateway or proxy | | Home | www.akto.io | | Price | no published price | | Read | 5 November 2026 | ## What it does for this layer Akto says its MCP Security module "automatically identifies MCP servers, discovers associated Agentic components, runs targeted red teaming, and continuously monitors" for misconfigurations, threats and data leaks ([ai-security-docs.akto.io](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/readme/mcp-security.md)). Akto's agent-proxy gateway URL is built by dropping https:// from the target MCP server URL and appending it to the agent-proxy base, so every tool call passes through Akto ([ai-security-docs.akto.io](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/akto-argus-agentic-ai-security-for-homegrown-ai/connectors/ai-agent-security/microsoft-copilot-studio/proxy-mcp-via-akto.md)). Akto's MCP discovery works across cloud, hybrid and on-premises environments, per its docs ([ai-security-docs.akto.io](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/readme/mcp-security.md)). Akto's MCP security page says it keeps only sanctioned servers in place by discovering servers and the agents invoking them and enforcing guardrails ([www.akto.io](https://www.akto.io/mcp-security)). Akto's probe library for MCP covers prompt injection, tool poisoning, excessive permissions and unauthorized endpoint access ([ai-security-docs.akto.io](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/readme/mcp-security.md)). Akto documents routing Microsoft Copilot Studio agents' MCP tool calls through its agent-proxy, which inspects requests and responses and applies policies while staying transparent to the server ([ai-security-docs.akto.io](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/akto-argus-agentic-ai-security-for-homegrown-ai/connectors/ai-agent-security/microsoft-copilot-studio/proxy-mcp-via-akto.md)). ## Products and plans | Product | What it does | Price | | --- | --- | --- | | MCP Security module | Discovery, red teaming and monitoring of MCP servers in Akto Argus. | no published price | | Agent-proxy gateway | Inline proxy that inspects MCP tool calls. | no published price | ## Checks on its own domain | Check | Domain | Result | Scanned | Method | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Ora cached score | akto.io | 62 of 100, grade C | 5 September 2026 | how it was taken | | Cloudflare agent-readiness scan | akto.io | 27 of 100, L1 Basic Web Presence; 4 of 15 counted checks passed | 5 November 2026 | how it was taken | ## What it does not do - Akto does not publish prices on the MCP pages read. ## Related on this site Type - [Security scanners](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/by-type/security-scanner/) - [Gateways and proxies](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/by-type/gateway/) Section - [All vendors](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/) Edition 4 November 2026 Method [How rows are verified](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/method/) Data [CSV and JSON](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/data/) Markdown [This page as markdown](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/akto/index.md) ## Sources - [Akto MCP Security Solution | MCP Vendor Security](https://www.akto.io/mcp-security), read 5 November 2026 - [ai-security-docs.akto.io/readme/mcp-security.md](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/readme/mcp-security.md), read 5 November 2026 - [ai-security-docs.akto.io/akto-argus-agentic-ai-security-for-homegrown-ai/connectors/others/mcp-recon.md](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/akto-argus-agentic-ai-security-for-homegrown-ai/connectors/others/mcp-recon.md), read 5 November 2026 - [ai-security-docs.akto.io/akto-argus-agentic-ai-security-for-homegrown-ai/connectors/ai-agent-security/microsoft-copilot-](https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/akto-argus-agentic-ai-security-for-homegrown-ai/connectors/ai-agent-security/microsoft-copilot-studio/proxy-mcp-via-akto.md), read 5 November 2026 Last reviewed 5 November 2026
