Course Prerequisites

Certainly! To successfully undertake training in the Advanced Kubernetes Security course, it is essential for participants to have a foundational understanding and practical experience with Kubernetes. The prerequisites are designed to ensure that learners have a solid base upon which to build advanced security skills. Here they are in bullet point format:


  • Basic understanding of Kubernetes concepts: Familiarity with pods, deployments, services, and basic Kubernetes architecture is essential.


  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes: Practical experience in setting up and managing a Kubernetes cluster, including working with kubectl and managing resources.


  • Knowledge of containerization: An understanding of containers, primarily Docker, and how they are used within Kubernetes.


  • Familiarity with Linux/Unix command line: Comfort with using the command line, as Kubernetes and many security tools are often interacted with via the CLI.


  • Basic understanding of network security: Concepts such as firewalls, network policies, and the general principles of isolating and protecting network resources.


  • Awareness of general security principles: A grasp of fundamental security concepts like least privilege, attack surface reduction, and defense in depth.


  • Prior exposure to cloud computing concepts: Understanding the environment in which Kubernetes often operates, whether it's public, private, or hybrid cloud scenarios.


These prerequisites are not meant to be barriers but rather to ensure that you can fully benefit from the advanced content of the course. If you feel unsure about your readiness, Koenig Solutions offers foundational courses that can prepare you for this advanced training.
