X-PHY’s Camellia Chan on hardware-enforced security for the age of AI agents

Camellia Chan, CEO and Co-Founder of X-PHY, discusses how Model Context Protocol (MCP) is making it easier for AI agents to plug into enterprise apps and operate with elevated permissions — creating new opportunities for attacks and data exfiltration.

She explains how X-PHY’s hardware-enforced monitoring and detection sit beyond the OS trust boundary to enforce immutable limits on what agents can do and stop threats before data is lost, so organizations can adopt agentic AI with confidence.

To illustrate the speed of scaling and attack surface: Since Anthropic open sourced MCP in late 2024, Anthropic itself published data that demonstrates how fast the ecosystem has scaled, reaching 10,000+ active servers and ~97M monthly SDK downloads within 1 year.
