Trivy (tri pronounced like trigger, vy pronounced like envy) is a comprehensive security scanner. It is reliable, fast, extremely easy to use, and it works wherever you need it.

Trivy has different scanners that look for different security issues, and different targets where it can find those issues.

Targets:

  • Container Image
  • Filesystem
  • Git repository (remote)
  • Kubernetes cluster or resource

Scanners:

  • OS packages and software dependencies in use (SBOM)
  • Known vulnerabilities (CVEs)
  • IaC misconfigurations
  • Sensitive information and secrets

Much more scanners and targets are coming up. Missing something? Let us know!
