Target Group

This course is ideal for anyone who holds a CKA certification and is interested in or responsible for cloud security.

Knowledge Prerequisites

    • Good understanding of Linux
    • Familiarity with the command line
    • Familiarity with package managers
    • Familiarity with Git and GitHub
    • Knowledge of working with Kubernetes - For this we recommend the Kubernetes Administration LFS458 course with completion of the CKA certification

 

In addition to this LFS460 training (alternatively LFS260 e-learning), the following Linux Foundation e-learnings are required for the Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) exam:

In addition, the Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) qualification is required.

You can find the exact certification path in the CKS Curriculum Path.

Course Objective

The course, together with practical experience and study, provides the skills and knowledge to take the Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) exam.

Exam

The online proctored exam is taken on PSI's “Bridge” proctoring platform using the PSI Secure Browser (a web browser designed to ensure secure exam administration via a virtual connection). For more information, see the Linux Foundation's exam tips.

In addition, the exam gives you access to an exam simulator provided by Killer.sh. You have two simulation attempts (36 hours of access for each attempt from the start of activation). The simulation consists of 20-25 questions, which, unlike the actual exam, are exactly the same for each attempt and each user. The simulation provides graded results.
