## Why business.sos-search is rated Low

This tool retrieves publicly available business registry information with no side effects. It queries existing data without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing operations. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an attacker could only gather publicly available business information, which poses no confidentiality risk (data is already public) and no integrity or availability risk.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool performs 'search' and 'returns' data (entity id, name, type, status, jurisdiction, formation date, address, registered agent) from public State Secretary-of-State business registries. No modification, deletion, or execution capability described."

## Use case

AI agents call business.sos-search to retrieve information from Mcp 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 Mcp:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "business.sos-search": {}
  }
}
```
