 # Netwrix Privilege Secure MCP Server
-The Netwrix Privilege Secure MCP Server is a [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction) server that provides seamless integration with Netwrix Privilege Secure (NPS), enabling AI agents to monitor and manage privileged access across your environment.
+
+This [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction) server enables AI assistants to interface directly with Netwrix Privilege Secure (NPS), enhancing your organization's Privileged Access Management (PAM) capabilities.
 
 ## Use Cases
-- Monitor active privileged sessions and view live screenshots
-- Search command history to identify suspicious activity
-- Identify administrators with outdated passwords
-- Track managed credentials that require rotation
-- Automate security audits and compliance reporting
+- **Real-time Monitoring:** View active privileged sessions with live screenshots
+- **Security Investigation:** Search command history to identify suspicious activity
+- **Credential Management:** Identify outdated passwords and credentials needing rotation
