## Why list_glp_backup_vm_protection_groups is rated Low

This tool retrieves and queries existing VM protection groups from the Backup & Recovery system. The 'list' action is a read-only operation that returns information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any changes. The blast radius of misuse is limited to potential information disclosure about backup configurations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'List virtual-machine protection groups', indicating a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects."

## Use case

AI agents call list_glp_backup_vm_protection_groups to retrieve information from Hpe Networking without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Hpe Networking:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "list_glp_backup_vm_protection_groups": {}
  }
}
