AI-Powered Vulnerability Scanner with Nessus, Risk Triage & Google Sheets Reporting

Description

🛡 CyberScan – AI-Powered Vulnerability Scanner with Nessus, OpenAI, and Google Sheets

👤 Who’s it for

Security teams, DevOps engineers, vulnerability analysts, and automation builders who want to eliminate repetitive Nessus scan parsing, AI-based risk triage, and manual reporting. Designed for orgs following NIST CSF or CISA KEV compliance guidelines.

⚙️ How it works / What it does

Runs scheduled or manual scans via the Nessus API.
Processes scan results and extracts asset + vulnerability data.
Uses a custom AI-based risk metric (LEV) to triage findings into:
🚨 Expert review
✅ Self-healing
🕵️ Monitoring
Automatically sends email alerts for critical CVEs.
Exports daily summaries to Google Sheets (or your own BI system).
Maps to NIST CSF (Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover).

🧰 How to set up

Nessus: Add your Nessus API credentials and instance URL.
Google Sheets: Authenticate your Google account.
OpenAI / LLM: Use your API key if adding LLM triage or rewrite prompts.
Email: Update SMTP credentials and alert recipient address.
Set your targets: Adjust asset ranges or scan UUIDs as needed.
⚠️ All setup steps are explained in sticky notes inside the workflow.

📋 Requirements

Nessus Essentials (Free) or Nessus Pro with API access.
SMTP service (e.g. Gmail, Mailgun, SendGrid).
Google Sheets OAuth2 credentials.
Optional: OpenAI or other LLM provider for LEV scoring and CVE insights.

🛠 How to customize the workflow

Swap Google Sheets with Airtable, Supabase, or PostgreSQL.
Change scan logic or asset list to fit your internal network scope.
Adjust AI scoring logic to match internal CVSS thresholds or KEV tags.
Expand alerting logic to include Slack, Discord, or webhook triggers.
