Why CreateComputerRecoveryToken is rated Medium
This tool creates a recovery token, which is a Write operation (creating a new artifact). However, the severity is high because recovery tokens could be misused to gain unauthorized access to protected computers in a backup infrastructure, representing a significant security risk if an AI agent were to misuse this capability.

The rule that runs CreateComputerRecoveryToken safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For CreateComputerRecoveryToken, this is the rule to start with:
CreateComputerRecoveryToken stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server, apply this rule, and every CreateComputerRecoveryToken call is checked against it from then on.
