Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific concepts (such as registry keys, Windows services, and file paths) are described in detail, often with examples or tables, while Linux equivalents (such as daemons or configuration files) are mentioned but not explored with the same depth. In several sections, Windows tools and patterns (e.g., registry, Windows services, c:\ paths) are presented first or exclusively, and Linux-specific examples are sparse or absent. The alerting/query examples and registry monitoring are heavily Windows-centric, and there is little explanation or tabular detail for Linux-specific monitoring (e.g., no table of common Linux daemon paths or config files). Some command-line examples are presented for both platforms, but the overall narrative and examples lean toward Windows.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent Linux-focused sections, such as a table of commonly monitored Linux configuration files or directories (e.g., /etc/passwd, /etc/ssh/sshd_config) and common daemons.
- Provide Linux-specific examples for alerting and queries, such as tracking changes to /etc/hosts, /etc/shadow, or systemd service states.
- Balance the order of presentation: when listing features, alternate or parallelize Windows and Linux examples (e.g., 'Windows registry or Linux configuration files').
- Expand the explanation of Linux daemon monitoring, including what is tracked and how, similar to the Windows registry section.
- Where screenshots or UI references are given, ensure Linux scenarios are depicted as well.
- Clarify any platform-specific limitations or differences in parity, and provide migration or workaround guidance for Linux users.
