    description: >-
      MCP Hub vulnerability scanning APIs. Submitting scans (the POST endpoints)
      is open to all authenticated callers. The scan **retrieval** APIs — Get
      Scan Job Status, Get Complete Scan Results, List Scans, and Get MCP Hub
      Scan Statistics (the GET endpoints) — are an **enterprise data-license
      feature**: they require your organization to have MCP Hub API access
      enabled by Enkrypt, otherwise they return `403`. Contact us at
      support@enkryptai.com to enable access.
