What ad_smb_enum does on Zebbern Kali MCP
AI agents call ad_smb_enum to retrieve information from Zebbern Kali MCP without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Why ad_smb_enum is rated Low
This tool performs enumeration (read/discovery) of SMB shares and related information on a target system — a passive reconnaissance action with no direct data modification. However, the severity is high because SMB enumeration against systems without authorization is an offensive security action that reveals sensitive network topology, share names, and potentially accessible resources.

The rule that runs ad_smb_enum safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Zebbern Kali MCP, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For ad_smb_enum, this is the rule to start with:
ad_smb_enum is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Zebbern Kali MCP, apply this rule, and every ad_smb_enum call is checked against it from then on.
