Certified MCP Security Expert (CMCPSE)

Dive into the world of agentic AI security with the Certified MCP Security Expert course, designed to equip you with a deep understanding of the risks lurking within the Model Context Protocol ecosystem. Through a blend of theoretical insights and hands-on lab exercises, you’ll learn to identify, exploit, and defend against MCP-specific threats including tool poisoning, prompt injection, rug-pull attacks, and cross-server privilege escalation. The course also delves into essential practices for hardening MCP servers, securing the agentic AI supply chain, and integrating security into MCP development pipelines, ensuring you’re prepared to tackle MCP security from all angles.

Embarking on this comprehensive journey, you will explore the unique attack surface of MCP architectures across agentic AI systems, mapping threats against frameworks like MITRE ATLAS and applying STRIDE methodology to model real-world pipelines. By engaging with defensive techniques including OAuth 2.0 authentication, TLS transport security, secrets management, and AI firewalls, you will conclude the course with a robust understanding of how to secure MCP-powered systems end-to-end. This knowledge empowers you to ensure the safe and governed deployment of agentic AI across industries, ready to face and mitigate the emerging threats redefining the modern security landscape.
