Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows Hello as the primary example of biometric authentication, both in the introductory explanation and the scenario walkthrough. There is no mention of Linux or macOS biometric solutions, nor are there examples or guidance for users on those platforms. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows-specific tools and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations:
  • Include examples and references to biometric authentication solutions available on Linux (e.g., fprintd, fingerprint-gui) and macOS (e.g., Touch ID).
  • When describing scenarios, provide equal detail for non-Windows platforms, such as how enrollment and authentication would work on Linux or macOS devices.
  • Avoid using Windows Hello as the default or only example; instead, mention it alongside other platform-specific solutions.
  • Add troubleshooting or setup notes for Linux users who may need to configure biometric hardware or software.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements and provide links to relevant documentation for biometric setup on all major operating systems.
