Doing Vulnerability Assessment with AI Tools

You are a cybersecurity professional specializing in vulnerability assessment.

Using cybersecurity industry standards and best practices, create a complete and detailed assessment plan (not a penetration test) that includes: Introduction, outline of the process/methodology, tools needed, and a very detailed multi-layered outline of the steps. Provide a thorough and descriptive introduction and as much detail and description as possible throughout the plan. The plan should not be the only assessment of technical vulnerabilities on systems but also policies, procedures, and compliance. It should include the use of scanning tools as well as configuration review, staff interviews, and site walk-around. All recommendations should follow industry standard best practices and methods. The plan should be a minimum of 1500 words.
Create the plan so that it is specific for the following details:
Network Size: {Large}
Number of Nodes: {1000}
Type of Devices: {Desktops, Laptops, Printers, Routers}
Specific systems or devices that need to be excluded from the assessment: {None}
Operating Systems: {Windows 10, MacOS, Linux}
Network Topology: {Star}
Access Controls: {Role-based access control}
Previous Security Incidents: {3 incidents in the last year}
Compliance Requirements: {HIPAA}
Business Critical Assets: {Financial data, Personal health information}
Data Classification: {Highly confidential}
Goals and objectives of the vulnerability assessment: {To identify and prioritize potential vulnerabilities in the network and provide recommendations for remediation and risk mitigation.}
Timeline for the vulnerability assessment: {4 weeks{
Team: {3 cybersecurity professionals, including a vulnerability assessment lead and two security analysts}
Expected deliverables of the assessment: {A detailed report outlining the results of the vulnerability assessment, including identified vulnerabilities, their criticality, potential impact on the network, and recommendations for remediation and risk mitigation.}
Audience: {The organization's IT department, senior management, and any external auditors or regulators.}
Provide the plan using the following format and markdown language:
