Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All examples, deployment scenarios, and configuration instructions are exclusively for Windows Server and Windows-based Azure services. PowerShell is the only automation tool referenced, and all code samples and extension instructions are Windows-centric. Linux is explicitly listed as unsupported, and there are no equivalent instructions, tools, or recommendations for Linux VMs or services.
Recommendations
- Clearly state Linux support status and provide guidance for Linux users, including alternative antimalware solutions for Linux VMs.
- If Microsoft Antimalware is not available for Linux, link to recommended third-party or Azure-supported Linux antimalware solutions.
- Provide parity in documentation structure: include sections for Linux deployment, configuration, and monitoring (even if only to explain limitations or alternatives).
- Include CLI (az), Bash, or Python examples for automation, not just PowerShell.
- Mention Linux-native tools and patterns where applicable, and avoid assuming Windows as the default platform in instructions and screenshots.
