Use Valid New CKS Test Notes & CKS Valid Exam Guide
The Linux Foundation CKS exam covers various aspects of Kubernetes security, including access control, network security, cluster hardening, authentication and authorization, and monitoring and logging. Candidates are required to demonstrate their knowledge of these topics through a series of practical, scenario-based questions that test their ability to analyze and solve security problems in real-world situations.
NEW QUESTION # 18
SIMULATION
Create a new ServiceAccount named backend-sa in the existing namespace default, which has the capability to list the pods inside the namespace default.
Create a new Pod named backend-pod in the namespace default, mount the newly created sa backend-sa to the pod, and Verify that the pod is able to list pods.
Ensure that the Pod is running.
Answer:
Explanation:
A service account provides an identity for processes that run in a Pod.
When you (a human) access the cluster (for example, using kubectl), you are authenticated by the apiserver as a particular User Account (currently this is usually admin, unless your cluster administrator has customized your cluster). Processes in containers inside pods can also contact the apiserver. When they do, they are authenticated as a particular Service Account (for example, default).
When you create a pod, if you do not specify a service account, it is automatically assigned the default service account in the same namespace. If you get the raw json or yaml for a pod you have created (for example, kubectl get pods/<podname> -o yaml), you can see the spec.serviceAccountName field has been automatically set.
You can access the API from inside a pod using automatically mounted service account credentials, as described in Accessing the Cluster. The API permissions of the service account depend on the authorization plugin and policy in use.
In version 1.6+, you can opt out of automounting API credentials for a service account by setting automountServiceAccountToken: false on the service account:
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
name: build-robot
automountServiceAccountToken: false
...
In version 1.6+, you can also opt out of automounting API credentials for a particular pod:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: my-pod
spec:
serviceAccountName: build-robot
automountServiceAccountToken: false
...
The pod spec takes precedence over the service account if both specify a automountServiceAccountToken value.

NEW QUESTION # 25
You can switch the cluster/configuration context using the following command: [desk@cli] $ kubectl config use-context test-account Task: Enable audit logs in the cluster.
To do so, enable the log backend, and ensure that:
1. logs are stored at /var/log/Kubernetes/logs.txt
2. log files are retained for 5 days
3. at maximum, a number of 10 old audit log files are retained
A basic policy is provided at /etc/Kubernetes/logpolicy/audit-policy.yaml. It only specifies what not to log. Note: The base policy is located on the cluster's master node.
Edit and extend the basic policy to log: 1. Nodes changes at RequestResponse level 2. The request body of persistentvolumes changes in the namespace frontend 3.

The CKS certification is an advanced-level certification that requires a deep understanding of Kubernetes architecture and security best practices. Candidates must have experience working with Kubernetes in a production environment and should be familiar with common security threats and mitigation strategies.
The CKS certification exam covers a wide range of topics, including Kubernetes cluster architecture, network security, container security, access management, and security auditing. CKS exam is designed to assess the candidate's knowledge of security best practices, as well as their ability to implement and manage security controls effectively. Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist (CKS) certification exam is vendor-neutral, which means that it is not tied to any particular technology or platform, and is recognized by organizations worldwide.
