Course Description

Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) for 2022:
Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) Complete Course - Learn CKS - Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)

Want to learn about Kubernetes security or need to pass the Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) exam? You are on the right page.

Before we proceed you should already have some Kubernetes Administrator knowledge before attending this course. And if you like to attend the real CKS exam you need to hold a valid CKA certification.

In this course we will be focusing more on doing practicals, so you make sure you have a running Kubernetes cluster. I will try to make concepts very clear and easy to understand so you don't end up with any doubt. This course is focused on security. It deals with nearly all aspects of security within the context of a Kubernetes environment. That means securing not only the Kubernetes cluster itself but also the applications running within the cluster. You’ll learn how to secure many different components of Kubernetes applications and environments. We are going to cover every topic:

  • Cluster Setup

  • Cluster Hardening

  • System Hardening

  • Minimize Microservice Vulnerabilities

  • Supply Chain Security

  • Monitoring, Logging, and Runtime Security


This course also has an exam preparation section with a series of practice tests to verify the candidate's understanding of the topics discussed and verify if the candidate is ready to give the official certification exams.

Keeping the standards high similar to other best-seller courses of Zeal, this course has a perfect balance, and every topic is explained in a simplified way with practical scenarios.

With tons of practicals, easy-to-understand videos, and a dedicated exam preparation section, this course is all you need to gain a deeper understanding of Kubernetes and ace the official Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist" certification.

With this exciting set of learnings and practicals, I look forward to seeing you in this course and be part of your journey into Kubernetes and getting CKS certified.

Sometimes, reaching out and taking someone's hand is the beginning of a journey. We often need someone to helps us take the first few steps before we get a master's in that move.


This is the vision we have behind all of our courses 'Step by Step'


1. Start from scratch

2. Break down the topic

3. Simplify things

4. Go step by step


Teaching is our passion and we design every course so you can start from scratch, knowing nothing about a topic and become an expert after the course and can work on enterprise projects.

Do not worry if you do not have any existing knowledge of the subject. We will go very basic, step by step.

This is old content!! It still includes PSPs and has not been updated. No Labs provided: You will have to setup an environment (suitable!) yourself.

By Saravanan Palaniappan on 2/8/2025

This course is a valuable resource for professionals looking to gain practical Kubernetes security expertise. The instructor's experience and structured teaching approach make it effective for learners at all levels. While some areas could be explained in greater depth, the balance between theory, hands-on practice, and real-world applications makes it a highly recommended choice for anyone preparing for the CKS certification or improving their Kubernetes security skills.

Because to the instructor's experience and dynamic teaching approach, difficult security concepts are simple to comprehend and put into practice. Each module of the well-designed course builds on the one before it, and it is enhanced by real-world examples and interactive tasks that help students understand the concepts being covered.

By Rui Fernando Ferreira Ribeiro on 3/16/2024

Trainer seems to have things organized, the demos seem to need a little bit of more work. The topics are covered, but often they seem to be a little short of being delivered. With time, this can become a better course.

By Antoniu Dragos on 2/28/2024

This course provides a unique and comprehensive perspective on mastering Kubernetes security. The instructor's expertise is evident in the thoughtfully crafted content that prepares learners not only for the CKS exam but also for real-world Kubernetes security challenges.

By Sohan Aaron on 2/13/2024

The CKS certification process is a rigorous examination of a candidate's ability to implement and manage security best practices within Kubernetes clusters. The curriculum is thoughtfully crafted, covering a wide spectrum of security considerations, from basic pod and cluster configurations to advanced network policies and threat detection.
