|
|
|
|
## Knowledge
|
|
|
|
- [Linux Foundation: CKS certification and current domains](https://training.linuxfoundation.org/certification/certified-kubernetes-security-specialist/)
|
|
Authority for domain weights, prerequisites, current exam version, duration, and performance-based format.
|
|
- [CNCF certification curriculum repository](https://github.com/cncf/curriculum)
|
|
Authority for the published CKS curriculum. Check for version changes before changing the syllabus.
|
|
- [Linux Foundation: Important CKS instructions](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/tc-docs/certification/important-instructions-cks)
|
|
Authority for task/host rules, exam environment, installed tools, and operational constraints.
|
|
- [Linux Foundation: Resources allowed during CKS](https://docs.linuxfoundation.org/tc-docs/certification/certification-resources-allowed)
|
|
Authority for documentation permitted in the exam VM.
|
|
- [Kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/)
|
|
Primary reference for Kubernetes APIs, security concepts, administration, and tasks; permitted during the exam.
|
|
- [Falco documentation](https://falco.org/docs/)
|
|
Primary reference for runtime detection and Falco rules; permitted during the exam.
|
|
- [etcd documentation](https://etcd.io/docs/)

|
|
- [Kubernetes SIGs BOM CLI reference](https://kubernetes-sigs.github.io/bom/cli-reference/)

|
|
- [Techiescamp CKS certification guide](https://github.com/techiescamp/cks-certification-guide)
|
|
Community explanations and command examples. Use as practice input, not as the authority for current exam metadata.
|
|
- [Moabukar CKS exercises](https://github.com/moabukar/CKS-Exercises-Certified-Kubernetes-Security-Specialist)
|
|
Community exercises across the six domains. Some content is legacy, including PodSecurityPolicy; modernize before reuse.
|
|
- [Killer.sh CKS challenge series](https://github.com/killer-sh/cks-challenge-series)
|
|
Public, scenario-oriented practice useful for studying task wording and difficulty without using exam dumps.
|
|
|
|
## Wisdom (Communities)
|
|
|
|
- [Kubernetes Slack](https://slack.k8s.io/)
|
|
Practitioner community; use relevant security and certification-preparation channels to discuss concepts, never confidential exam content.
|
|
- [Kubernetes Discuss](https://discuss.kubernetes.io/)
|
|
Public community for operational questions and implementation feedback.
|
|
|
|
## Source policy
|
|
|
|
- Official CNCF/Linux Foundation objectives override community repositories.
|
|
- Official project documentation overrides remembered syntax and old examples.
|
|
- Never use or request confidential exam questions or dumps.
