The following services are supported:

trivy aws [flags]

Examples

  # basic scanning
  $ trivy aws --region us-east-1

  # limit scan to a single service:
  $ trivy aws --region us-east-1 --service s3

  # limit scan to multiple services:
  $ trivy aws --region us-east-1 --service s3 --service ec2

  # force refresh of cache for fresh results
  $ trivy aws --region us-east-1 --update-cache
