BigID has introduced the industry’s first Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, a groundbreaking innovation that securely bridges AI agents with enterprise data context. This launch marks a major advancement in how organizations can enable AI-native access to metadata, insights, and governance across the entire data landscape — structured or unstructured, on-premises or cloud-based. With this, BigID extends its leadership in data security, privacy, and AI governance by enabling AI systems to reason safely and intelligently over enterprise data.
BigID launches the first MCP Server to connect AI agents securely with enterprise data context.
Empowers AI to understand and reason over metadata, lineage, and risk insights — without accessing raw data.
Supports structured, unstructured, on-prem, cloud, and application-based data sources in a single framework.
Integrates AI agents like Claude through token-based authentication and role-based authorization.
Enables natural language querying, contextual answers, and flexible reports for data-driven decision-making.
Part of BigID’s mission to make enterprise data accessible for AI workflows with full governance and security.
BigID’s MCP Server enables organizations to establish a secure, governed, and contextual bridge between AI agents and enterprise data. Built on BigID’s robust discovery and classification foundation, the MCP Server allows AI to understand, reason, and act on data context — all while maintaining complete data security and governance.
This breakthrough technology enables enterprises to query data context through natural language and receive instant, context-rich insights and recommendations. Teams can generate flexible reports in seconds, transforming how they explore, understand, and operationalize data within AI workflows.
Through the MCP Server, AI agents such as Claude can connect securely to BigID’s platform using token-based authentication and role-based authorization, ensuring controlled and policy-based access. Once integrated, AI agents gain visibility into enterprise metadata — including sensitivity, lineage, identity, and compliance details — without ever touching raw data.
This approach empowers organizations to unlock AI-powered intelligence from diverse data sources, covering structured, unstructured, on-premises, cloud, legacy systems, and AI frameworks through a single integration.
The MCP Server offers deep contextual visibility that extends far beyond data discovery. It provides comprehensive classification, sensitivity tagging, retention, and compliance metadata, allowing AI agents to deliver accurate, explainable, and governed insights.
By incorporating governance directly into AI workflows, organizations can confidently scale their use of AI while ensuring regulatory compliance and data privacy across all environments.
“BigID's MCP Server is a breakthrough in connecting trusted data intelligence with the next generation of AI tools,” said Dimitri Sirota, CEO of BigID. “By bridging our discovery and classification capabilities with AI workflows, customers can unlock their proprietary enterprise data and use it in their AI applications in a secure way.”
This launch forms part of BigID’s broader strategy to make enterprise data context accessible to AI, allowing businesses to operationalize privacy, security, and compliance seamlessly within AI-driven environments.
