Effective incident response ensures quick recovery and minimizes risk during unexpected events.

The following table outlines common scenarios and recommended actions for MCP environments:
Scenario Action
Suspected service account key leak Immediately revoke the old key to stop accepting it, generate a new key, and rotate all associated tokens.
Unexpected 5xx error bursts Inspect system logs using correlation IDs and verify the availability of downstream services to identify root causes.
Tool abuse through high-frequency requests Enable rate limiting and adjust the max_requests_per_second parameter to prevent misuse and maintain system stability.
