Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist | CKS Course Training Overview

Prepare for the CKS exam with our Classroom and Online Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist Training at WebAsha Technologies. The course teaches the skills tested in the CNCF / Linux Foundation Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist exam.

Training Overview:

The CKS tests advanced skills in securing container-based applications and Kubernetes platforms during build, deployment and runtime. It is a hands-on, performance-based exam with 6 domains: cluster setup (15%), cluster hardening (15%), system hardening (10%), minimising microservice vulnerabilities (20%), supply chain security (20%), and monitoring, logging and runtime security (20%). The training follows those domains and prepares you for the exam. You must have passed the CKA exam before you attempt CKS.

Intended Audience:

The course is meant for DevSecOps engineers, Kubernetes security engineers and platform engineers who secure container-based applications and Kubernetes clusters.

Topics Covered:

  • Cluster Setup & Hardening: Network policies, CIS benchmarks, RBAC and API access.
  • System Hardening: Least privilege, seccomp and AppArmor.
  • Minimise Vulnerabilities: Pod security standards, security contexts and admission control.
  • Supply Chain Security: Image scanning, signing and SBOMs.
  • Runtime Security: Falco and behavioural detection.
  • Monitoring & Auditing: Kubernetes audit logs.
  • Secrets Management: Managing and protecting Kubernetes secrets.
  • Command Line: kubectl and the security tools used in the labs.

Requirements:

Online participants need a stable internet connection and a laptop or desktop. The programme includes instructor-led sessions and practice tests.

Pre-Requisites:

You must have passed the Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) exam before you attempt the CKS exam. Strong Kubernetes skills are essential.

Career Benefits:

Kubernetes security is a well-paid specialism. In India, CKS holders typically earn ₹8 LPA to ₹36+ LPA.

Curriculum Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist | CKS

Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS): 6 exam domains

1. Cluster Setup (15%)

Security starts when the cluster is built. This domain covers network restrictions, benchmark checks and the integrity of what you install.

  • Use network security policies to restrict cluster-level access
  • Use the CIS benchmark to review the security configuration of Kubernetes components (etcd, kubelet, kubedns, kubeapi)
  • Properly set up Ingress with TLS
  • Protect node metadata and endpoints
  • Verify platform binaries before deploying
2. Cluster Hardening (15%)

Here you limit who and what can reach the Kubernetes API, and keep the cluster patched.

  • Use Role Based Access Controls to minimise exposure
  • Exercise caution with service accounts: disable defaults and minimise permissions on newly created ones
  • Restrict access to the Kubernetes API
  • Upgrade Kubernetes to avoid vulnerabilities
3. System Hardening (10%)

This domain moves down to the nodes: the host operating system, its network exposure and the kernel features that confine containers.

  • Minimise the host OS footprint to reduce the attack surface
  • Use least-privilege identity and access management
  • Minimise external access to the network
  • Appropriately use kernel hardening tools such as AppArmor and seccomp
4. Minimize Microservice Vulnerabilities (20%)

You secure the workloads themselves: what a Pod is allowed to do, how its secrets are handled and how it is isolated from its neighbours.

  • Use appropriate pod security standards
  • Manage Kubernetes secrets
  • Understand and implement isolation techniques (multi-tenancy, sandboxed containers and so on)
  • Implement Pod-to-Pod encryption (Cilium, Istio)
5. Supply Chain Security (20%)

This domain covers everything that happens to an image before it runs in the cluster.

  • Minimise the base image footprint
  • Understand your supply chain (SBOM, CI/CD, artifact repositories)
  • Secure your supply chain (permitted registries, signing and validating artifacts)
  • Perform static analysis of user workloads and container images (for example Kubesec, KubeLinter)
6. Monitoring, Logging and Runtime Security (20%)

The last domain is about detecting and investigating an attack on a running cluster.

  • Perform behavioural analytics to detect malicious activities
  • Detect threats within physical infrastructure, apps, networks, data, users and workloads
  • Investigate and identify phases of attack and bad actors within the environment
  • Ensure immutability of containers at runtime
  • Use Kubernetes audit logs to monitor access

WebAsha exam practice: alongside the 6 official domains, we run timed, hands-on security tasks and full mock exams so that you are ready to pass on your first attempt.
