Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as Group Policy, Windows Firewall, SMB encryption, and Windows security books) are mentioned before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents. Windows examples and recommendations (e.g., Defender XDR blocking on Windows, Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool, Windows Group Policy) are often provided without corresponding Linux examples or parity. Linux guidance is present but sometimes less detailed or appears after Windows content. Some sections (e.g., OS-level hardening) provide more granular Windows instructions, while Linux instructions are more generic. Powershell and Windows-centric deployment/upgrade instructions are referenced without Linux CLI equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux examples and recommendations are provided alongside Windows ones, especially for security tooling, patching, and hardening.
  • Include Linux-specific tools and patterns (e.g., firewalld, SELinux, auditd, Linux-specific malware scanners) where Windows tools are mentioned.
  • Provide parity in detail for both Windows and Linux sections, such as step-by-step guides for configuring security features.
  • When referencing deployment or upgrade instructions (e.g., Trusted Launch), include Linux CLI or Azure CLI examples, not just Powershell or Windows-centric tabs.
  • List Linux and Windows options together (not Windows first) in checklists and recommendations to avoid perceived prioritization.
  • Expand Linux-specific troubleshooting, security, and operational guidance to match the depth of Windows content.
