In organizations, multiple numbers of containers running at a time so it is very hard to manage all the containers together we use Kubernetes. Kubernetes is an open-source platform for managing containerized workloads and services. Kubernetes takes care of scaling and failover for your application running on container.

The Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) program will consist of a performance-based certification exam and assures that a CKS has the skills, knowledge, and competence on a broad range of best practices for securing container-based applications and Kubernetes platforms during build, deployment, and runtime. This new certification is designed to enable cloud-native professionals to demonstrate security skills to current and potential employers.
