Multi-framework, multi-geography

One control plane, every AI regulation and framework you're accountable to.

42Crunch continuously evaluates every MCP server against the regulatory and industry frameworks your organization answers to — across every geography you operate in — and maps each finding to the specific control it breaches. Compliance posture is computed by the control on every audit and every scan, not assembled from documents afterward.

The compliance blind spot

MCP is where AI compliance obligations are won or lost.

MCP has become the de facto standard for AI agent-to-tool integration. AI agents now autonomously invoke tools, read resources, and act on enterprise data through MCP servers — shifting integration from deterministic API calls to dynamic, agent-driven interactions. Unmanaged adoption creates shadow integration paths that bypass enterprise controls: a single mis-scoped tool or logging gap produces untraceable agent actions, with no evidence trail to prove which controls were in place, or that they held.

How it works

One policy artifact drives every compliance decision.

42Crunch generates an MCP Contract for each server: a machine-readable specification of how it must operate. Written against a common enterprise policy schema, it's the single source of truth across discovery, audit, scanning, and compliance reporting — the same contract, evaluated the same way, wherever the server runs.

01

Continuous discovery

MCP servers are found across the enterprise automatically, with an initial contract generated for each — an immediate inventory without manual documentation.

02

Drift detection

Running servers are tested against their approved contracts, identifying OWASP MCP Top 10 vulnerabilities and unauthorized changes before they expose enterprise systems.

03

Data classification

Each tool is evaluated on the sensitivity of the data it handles and the actions it performs. High-impact tools get stricter controls, including human-in-the-loop approval.

04

Audit traceability

Every assessment and Security Quality Gate decision creates a versioned, scored governance record, evidencing that required controls were evaluated and enforced.

What this gives the compliance organization

Evidence, not attestations.

Continuous evidence — every audit, scan, and Security Quality Gate decision produces a versioned, scored, framework-mapped record, not a point-in-time attestation.

Deterministic, not LLM-judged — the same server evaluated twice returns the same score and the same findings, in any region, at any time.

Finding-level traceability — each finding carries a control reference, severity, and remediation.

Enforced, not advisory — Security Quality Gates block non-compliant MCP servers in CI/CD before production, rather than flagging a gap for someone to act on later.

Frequently asked

AI regulatory compliance, answered.

Which regulations and frameworks does 42Crunch cover? +

NIST AI RMF (United States), the EU AI Act (European Union), ISO/IEC 42001 (international management-system standard), the OWASP MCP Top 10 (global security baseline), and the CSA AI Controls Matrix (global, cloud-focused). Each is evidenced continuously, not assembled from documents at audit time.

Can one MCP server be evaluated against multiple geographies' frameworks at once? +

Yes — every audit and scan checks a server against all applicable frameworks simultaneously, so a server serving users in the US and the EU gets NIST AI RMF and EU AI Act findings side by side, in the same report.

Is this a replacement for legal or compliance counsel? +

No. 42Crunch evidences the technical controls a regulation requires — logging, access control, risk classification, and so on — and maps findings to the specific clause or control they touch. Whether that evidence satisfies a given regulator's expectations in a given jurisdiction is a legal determination your compliance and legal teams make; 42Crunch gives them the evidence to make it with.

How is compliance posture actually computed? +

Deterministically, by the control, on every audit and every scan. The same MCP server evaluated twice returns the same score and the same findings — nothing is estimated by a language model or assembled retroactively from policy documents.

What happens when a new regulation or framework version lands? +

New and updated frameworks are added to the 42Crunch Knowledge Base and evaluated against already-discovered MCP servers automatically — no need to re-audit manually or wait for the next scheduled review to see where you stand.

How does this differ from a general GRC platform? +

A GRC platform typically tracks policies and collects attestations. 42Crunch evaluates the MCP server itself against its approved contract and produces the technical evidence — most GRC and compliance workflows still need that evidence as an input, since policy documents alone can't prove a control actually held at runtime.
