cyber-mcp-server
Provides threat intelligence lookups for IP addresses, URLs, and file hashes using the VirusTotal API.
Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@cyber-mcp-serverScan scanme.nmap.org and summarize the open services."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Cybersecurity MCP Server
A production-style MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI models a toolkit of real cybersecurity capabilities — port scanning, WHOIS, DNS, threat intelligence, CVE lookup, and more.

}Example prompts (in Claude)
Scan scanme.nmap.org and summarize the open services.
Is 185.220.101.1 a malicious IP?
Look up CVE-2024-3400 and explain the risk.
Check the password "Summer2024!" — is it strong?
Analyse the hash d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e.
Scan https://example.com for SSL and security header issues.

Testing

Nmap scans should only target hosts you have permission to scan.
Passwords evaluated by
check_password_strengthare never logged or sent externally.All tool calls are written to
logs/audit.logas newline-delimited JSON.Run the container as a non-root user (already configured in
Dockerfile).Rotate
