  • The NSA has issued a stark warning: MCP — the protocol behind most enterprise agentic AI — is critically insecure. At Scrydon we built it differently. Our Cognitive Enterprise Platform defines every agentic workflow upfront and enforces identity, approvals, trust boundaries and just-in-time credentials by design — delivering deterministic, sovereign control with full immutable audit trails.

    The National Security Agency has just issued a stark public warning: #MCP, the protocol powering most enterprise #AgenticAI is critically insecure. Its message is blunt. MCP’s explosive adoption has far outpaced its #security model. Authentication is optional, approval workflows cannot be enforced at protocol level, and essential controls such as RBAC, token lifecycle and audit logging are left entirely to implementers. Even MCP’s own documentation admits authorisation is “optional but strongly recommended” and requires complex external OAuth plumbing that still leaves the door open to the very exploits the NSA has now documented. For regulated sectors, such as #AIinDefence, #AIinFSI and #AIinGovernment this is no longer acceptable. At Scrydon we took a fundamentally different approach. Our Cognitive Enterprise Platform does not bolt security onto MCP. Every agentic workflow is defined upfront. The Human + AI Orchestrator then enforces identity, approvals, trust boundaries and just-in-time credentials by design, delivering deterministic, sovereign control with full immutable audit trails. https://lnkd.in/dHnsKiG3 If you’re deploying agentic AI in a high-stakes environment, drop me a message. Happy to discuss how Scrydon turns these NSA recommendations into production reality today.

    The European Commission Cloud Sovereignty Framework turns #sovereignty into something measurable — SEAL scores 0–4 across eight criteria, from jurisdiction to supply chain. The April 17 contract awards show it working in practice: four consortia, up to €180M, real differentiation between providers. Measurement is the starting point. Rules without scores are just compliance language. That's exactly why we built a SEAL calculator — so organisations can see where they actually stand. https://lnkd.in/e9CVmg8D #DigitalSovereignty

    The EU is about to write more rules on cloud sovereignty than it has working sovereign clouds. On 17 April the Commission awarded its first contracts under the new Cloud Sovereignty Framework. SEAL (Sovereignty Effectiveness Assurance Levels, 0 through 4) scores eight criteria from jurisdiction to supply chain. Four consortia will supply EU institutions with sovereign cloud services, up to €180M over six years. The SEAL grid finally turns sovereignty into something measurable instead of marketing. On May 27 the Tech Sovereignty Package lands. CNBC reports it will likely require member-state public bodies to process financial, judicial and health data on high-sovereignty infrastructure. The package pairs those demand-side rules with supply-side investment in cloud and chips. Three consortia reached SEAL-3 (Digital Resilience). Proximus reached only SEAL-2, leaning on S3NS, the Thales-Google Cloud joint venture. CISPE, the body of 38 European cloud firms, called it an own goal. A SEAL-2 service operated by EU staff on Google technology, under a contractual immunity regime, may deliver more reliable continuity for a Belgian hospital than a SEAL-3 provider with thirty engineers and a fragile next funding round. Sovereignty is a risk gradient, and the framework scores it that way. The framework cannot build the missing capacity. US hyperscalers hold around 70 percent of the European cloud market and European providers around 15. New rules on May 27 will not change those numbers. Procurement that consistently rewards SEAL-3 will. Multi-year contracts that survive ministerial cycles will. The risk is that May 27 produces more compliance language than capacity. The honest sequencing is to build the SEAL-3 supply, run the procurement signal long enough for it to compound, and only then write the rules that bite. #CloudSovereignty #EUTechPolicy #DigitalSovereignty #PublicSector sources: - EU Cloud Sovereignty Framework: https://lnkd.in/e6mtcUT3 - Commission award announcement (17 April 2026): https://lnkd.in/eK5yFDYT - CISPE response, reported by The Register (20 April 2026): https://lnkd.in/e6YmmTz3 - CNBC on the Tech Sovereignty Package (7 May 2026): https://lnkd.in/er332mmm

    Yesterday in Brussels Prosus presented its State of AI in Europe report. This data-rich report outlines some surprising truths about what’s happening in Europe right now, and the AI talent / usage / startup paradox. The stategic opportunities clearly exist - but Europe is at a crossroads and reforms are urgently needed. Invest - unify - simplify is the recommendation, and do so with courage and urgency. During a fireside chat with European Commission Executive Vice-President Henna Virkkunen we heard how Europe is indeed well positioned to seize this defining technology moment, and the policy tools are arriving to support European industry. A panel of experts from Scrydon, Siemens, SAP and the EU AI Office discussed the opportunities and realities of AI policy and implementation. Big thanks to everyone who joined us and participated 👏. Prosus is powering, scaling and investing in AI innovation across Europe through its portfolio companies - and we’re just getting started 🚀 Report available here: https://lnkd.in/e5dqTYEX

  • The Alliance that masters Human+AI collaboration at speed — with full sovereignty and interoperability — will hold the decisive cognitive edge. From real-time sensor fusion to agentic AI and ontology-based standardization, the shift from experimentation to operational reality is accelerating. At Scrydon, we’re building exactly this: a sovereign Human+AI Orchestrator for #defence — visual, traceable, and air-gapped by design. TIDE Sprint 44 confirmed the urgency. #DefenceTech #DefenseTech #DualUse #WeAreNATO

    Just back from NATO TIDE Sprint 44 in Istanbul, and the message was unmistakable: AI and data aren’t future concepts. They’re the NOW of warfare. From Ukraine’s lessons to real-time sensor fusion and counter-drone orchestration, one thing became crystal clear: the Alliance that masters Human+AI collaboration at speed — while preserving sovereignty and interoperability — will hold the cognitive advantage. Key reflections from the week: AI-enabled data fusion is moving from theory to tactical reality Ontology-based standardization offers a real path through the “speed vs. interoperability” dilemma. Agentic AI with strong human guardrails and full auditability isn’t optional — it’s essential Sovereign platforms that deliver enterprise-grade data maturity first are the foundation for meaningful alliance sharing At Scrydon, we’re building exactly that: a sovereign Human+AI Orchestrator designed for defense — visual agentic workflows, air-gapped deployment, complete traceability, and multi-domain situational awareness. TIDE Sprint 44 didn’t just validate the direction. It confirmed the urgency. If you’re working on defense AI strategy, multi-domain operations, or sovereign capability development — I’d love to connect and exchange perspectives.

    The #Aerospace & #Defence sector is under more pressure than ever. Supply chain disruptions, tightening compliance requirements, talent shortages, rising cost pressure - delivering operational excellence in this environment is genuinely hard. On May 26, delaware BeLux and Scrydon are hosting a free 45-minute webinar to show how AI is already creating measurable impact across A&D - not in theory, but in practice. We will walk through how AI is helping organizations reduce downtime, eliminate repetitive work, stay compliant, improve financial forecasting, and manage change in a way that actually sticks. Whether you are an IT director, production lead, data manager, ERP owner or C-level executive looking to strengthen performance - this session is built for you. Tuesday, May 26, 2026 - 13:30 CET - Online, free of charge https://lnkd.in/eu3fnJQ2 Looking forward in seeing you there; and glad to be in good company with Laurent Soete and Nathan Van Lombeek.

    Most companies are asking the wrong question about AI. They ask: "Which tools should we adopt?" The real question is: "What kind of transformation are we ready for?" In Benjamin Hourte's latest article, he breaks down AI adoption in the enterprise into three distinct stages — and why confusing them is costing companies time, money, and confidence: 🔹 Stage 1 — AI that amplifies the individual Copilots, vibe-coding, generative assistants. One human + one AI = outcomes neither could achieve alone. But without governance, this is also where shadow AI thrives. 🔹 Stage 2 — AI that fluidifies the system iPaaS, data fabric, intelligent orchestration. AI stops being a point tool and becomes the connective tissue of the organization. This is the unglamorous stage most companies skip — and then wonder why Stage 3 fails. 🔹 Stage 3 — AI that acts autonomously Agentic AI that plans, decides, and executes. The promise is enormous. So are the risks — as Klarna learned the hard way when they had to reintroduce humans after over-automating customer support. Here's what I've seen in Europe companies rush to Stage 3 without building the infrastructure for Stage 2, or the culture for Stage 1. The result? Fragmented pilots, isolated POCs, and AI that never becomes a real business lever. Becoming AI-native isn't a technology challenge. It's a governance, talent, culture, and architecture challenge — all at once. Very proud to see Scrydon mentioned, as we are building an #AgenticAI platform that puts #HumanPlusAI at the centre, as Stage 3 requires Trust.

    At ai5050.com on March 31, Nathan Bijnens, CEO at Scrydon, will tackle one of the questions that matters most as agentic AI moves into real business processes: not whether you adopt it, but whether you control it. In “Agentic AI & Sovereignty: Your AI, Your Control”, Nathan explains why platform choice is a strategic decision, why process-driven agents require sovereign infrastructure, and how organisations can stay in command of their AI roadmap as autonomy increases. Nathan brings a practitioner’s perspective shaped by years in data & AI architecture and enterprise delivery, including leadership roles in Microsoft’s Data & AI domain and his current work building sovereign AI solutions.

    AI law is no longer a niche — it is a stress test for the entire legal profession. Last week I had the privilege of co-organising and speaking at LexLab @ UC Law San Francisco, also wearing my hat as CLO of Scrydon. Five days of sessions, case studies and live litigation confirmed what many of us have sensed for a while: the central questions of AI governance are no longer merely technical and policy driven — they are legal, contractual and fiduciary. And as we were discussing AI agents and the boundaries of professional practice, news broke that OpenAI had been sued for lawyering without a licence. Sometimes the curriculum writes itself (news link in first comment below 👇). Full write-up on the Scrydon blog. If you are based in Europe and wondering whether a US-focused programme is worth the trip — in my experience, yes. The Law & AI Certificate at UC Law SF offers a ground-level view of how AI law is being made in real time, and that perspective travels well. Feel free to reach out if you want to know more. 👉 https://lnkd.in/dQ3avWJn #AIGovernance #AILaw #EUAIAct #Scrydon #UCLAWSF #LexLab
