The short version

  • Only Trivy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Oracle Government Cloud oracle publishes a separate US Public Sector part number detail list and a Managed Services for US/DoD Government list, so commercial price lists do not apply to government buyers; Trivy reports what public advisory databases know, so coverage varies by ecosystem and unfixed CVEs create noise
  • They diverge on capability: Oracle Government Cloud covers Cloud Infrastructure, Trivy covers Multi-target scanning.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Oracle Government Cloud

  • Oracle publishes a separate US Public Sector part number detail list and a Managed Services for US/DoD Government list, so commercial price lists do not apply to government buyers
  • Prices are distributed as downloadable PDF price lists rather than an interactive pricing page
  • Oracle states plainly that its commercial price lists are only for non-government agencies

Trivy

  • Reports what public advisory databases know, so coverage varies by ecosystem and unfixed CVEs create noise
  • No built-in triage or exception workflow, so suppressing accepted risk is managed in config files
  • Findings are point-in-time from CI, with no continuous runtime monitoring unless you add the commercial platform
