Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric technologies (e.g., ASP.NET, WCF, SQL Server, SMB, Windows Azure references) and providing examples and recommendations that are specific to Windows environments. There is a lack of Linux-specific guidance, tools, or code samples, and Windows tools and patterns (such as web.config, URL Rewrite, ServicePointManager, and SMB clients for Windows) are mentioned exclusively or before any Linux equivalents. No Linux command-line or configuration examples are provided, and the code samples are in C#/.NET, which are primarily used in Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific examples for enforcing HTTPS (e.g., using Nginx or Apache configuration snippets).
  • Include guidance for certificate validation and pinning in Linux environments (e.g., using OpenSSL, curl, or Python).
  • Mention Linux-compatible SMB clients (e.g., smbclient, mount.cifs) and how to enable SMB 3.x encryption on Linux.
  • Provide parity for SQL Server connection encryption and validation using Linux tools (e.g., sqlcmd on Linux, ODBC configuration).
  • Offer code samples in cross-platform languages (e.g., Python, Java) and frameworks that run natively on Linux.
  • Reference Linux documentation and tools alongside Windows ones, ensuring equal visibility and guidance.
