Secure GitHub or any MCP Server with Okta via AgentCore Gateway
This article details how to secure Machine Communication Protocols (MCPs) using Okta and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway. It introduces Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) as a method for MCP clients to authenticate via a URL-based client ID, which is a more secure alternative to dynamic client registration. However, Okta currently lacks CIMD support, necessitating an OAuth proxy to bridge this gap by mapping CIMD clients to an Okta native application. AI
