We diligently update all content to reflect the latest Kubernetes releases while incorporating valuable community feedback and insights from our enterprise engagements. Our goal is to empower individuals to excel in the ever-evolving world of cloud native technology.

Available Courses

Kubernetes Fundamentals (2 days)

This course introduces participants to container orchestration with Kubernetes. Attendees will master the foundational concepts of Kubernetes in development and production through a combination of presentations, demos, and hands-on labs, including building and deploying Kubernetes applications, cloud native Continuous Delivery, and cluster monitoring and debugging. This course also covers system components, core resources, and the requirements for minimum viable cluster security.

Kubernetes Operations (2 days)

This course builds on Kubernetes Fundamentals by digging deeper into how Kubernetes works. It covers advanced features and use-cases to prepare engineers for the day-to-day reality of creating, maintaining and debugging Kubernetes clusters in production.

Kubernetes for Developers (2 days)

This course builds on Kubernetes Fundamentals by going “under the hood” and examining the relationship between application workloads and the Kubernetes orchestrator. It details how to take advantage of Kubernetes features to deploy fault-tolerant autoscaling applications, release new versions with zero downtime, and debug failures.

Kubernetes and Container Security (1 day)

The course guides attendees through Linux container security in general, and progresses to advanced Kubernetes cluster security. It emphasises pragmatic threat modelling and risk assessment based on an understanding of the tools and primitives available.

Advanced Kubernetes Security: Learn By Hacking (3 days + 1 CTF day)

This comprehensive course, created by Hacking Kubernetes author and SANS instructor Andrew Martin, explores Kubernetes architecture, security, and delivery through offensive and defensive approaches.

Threat Modelling Kubernetes (1 day)

Traditional on-premise systems rely heavily on perimeter and firewall security: Kubernetes and cloud native systems present new threat profiles. Cloud technologies change rapidly as vendors introduce new managed services, and users evolve their usage of an ever-expanding toolset. Kubernetes moves fast and security must keep up with the speed of innovation.

GRC Threat Modelling with Cloud Native (1 day)

This course builds on Threat Modelling Kubernetes by diving deeper into how formal threat modelling can be used to prove compliance with GRC requirements. The course is backed by a full reference Kubernetes Threat Model, linked to controls from industry frameworks and standards.

Zero Trust Security with SPIFFE and SPIRE (LFS482)

Zero Trust Security is a critical approach in modern cybersecurity, focusing on the belief that an organisation should not implicitly trust anything inside or outside its perimeters. Instead, it must verify everything trying to connect to its systems before granting access.
