Advanced Kubernetes Security course focuses on developing the skills and knowledge needed for implementing security measures from code to a production Kubernetes cluster. Students will engage in topics pertaining to adding security mechanisms along the code deployment pipeline and reviewing and remediating security concerns within a Kubernetes infrastructure. Topics include declarative configuration analysis, container image scanning, CIS benchmark scanning and remediation, and identifying and mitigating attack vectors within Kubernetes. Kubernetes Operations and System Integration teams will benefit greatly as they work towards creating a security posture that aligns with security policies for their Kubernetes environments.At the end of this course, you will have the knowledge and skills that will aid in passing the CKS: Certified Kubernetes Security exam.
