FAQ
How many MCP servers are there for security scanning?
Electra Index lists 305 active MCP servers for security scanning from the Official MCP Registry. 143 offer a hosted endpoint and 235 publish their source code.
Is there a hosted MCP server for security scanning, with nothing to install?
Yes. Bright Security, ZEN SecDB and zenable declare a remote endpoint you add to your assistant's MCP settings.
Is there a ready-made AI agent for security scanning instead?
Yes. If you prefer a finished product to plugging tools into your own assistant, Claude Code and CodeRabbit do this out of the box.
How this list is ordered: a tool comes first when the use case appears in its name rather than only in its description, then when it offers a hosted endpoint, then when its source code is public, then by how recently our robot saw it in the Official MCP Registry. The match to security Scanning comes from the publisher's description (keyword method), not from a test of the tool. Only active tools with a real description are listed. No tool pays to appear here.
