Minimize Microservice Vulnerabilities for CKS

Struggling with microservice vulnerabilities in Kubernetes? This course teaches you to secure pods, manage secrets, isolate workloads, and encrypt pod-to-pod communication, ensuring robust protection for your Kubernetes clusters.

What you'll learn

Modern microservices depend on Kubernetes, but improper security configurations can expose your clusters to serious threats. In this course, Minimize Microservice Vulnerabilities for CKS, you’ll gain the ability to secure Kubernetes clusters in alignment with Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) objectives.

First, you’ll explore how to apply pod security policies and security contexts to enforce least-privilege access and prevent unauthorized actions. Next, you’ll discover how to securely manage sensitive data such as API keys and credentials using Kubernetes secrets. Finally, you’ll learn how to implement secure multi-tenancy, sandboxed containers, and pod-to-pod encryption using tools like Cilium and Istio.

When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Kubernetes security needed to protect your microservices architecture from common vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with CKS standards.
