As AI adoption accelerates across real estate, MLS data sits at the center of both opportunity and risk. MCP is emerging as a key safeguard, helping the industry innovate responsibly while protecting critical data assets.
A conversation with ICE's Lucie Fortier and Jeff Fullbright reveals how AI is reshaping MLS platforms and what it means for data governance, agent adoption, and competitive positioning.

If your team is deploying AI agents using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) without proper security, you're essentially leaving your business wide open to attack. A recent security assessment found that 43% of popular MCP implementations contain command injection flaws, 30% allow network infiltration, and 22% expose sensitive file vulnerabilities. With real-world incidents already occurring the solution isn't hoping for the best, it's implementing an MCP gateway before your next deployment.
