Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific technologies (e.g., SMB 3.0, Microsoft Entra, Defender for Cloud) and tools without providing Linux equivalents or examples. Windows protocols and tools are mentioned first or exclusively, such as SMB for file shares and Azure Disk Encryption for Windows VMs, while Linux-specific guidance is either missing or less emphasized. There are no command-line examples for Linux, and operational patterns are described in a way that assumes familiarity with Windows-centric Azure features.
Recommendations
- Include Linux-specific examples and guidance alongside Windows references, such as NFS for file shares and Linux command-line tools.
- Provide parity in documentation for Azure Disk Encryption, ensuring both Linux and Windows VM instructions are present and equally detailed.
- Add operational security checklist items relevant to Linux environments, such as SELinux/AppArmor, Linux audit logs, and integration with Linux-based monitoring tools.
- When mentioning protocols (e.g., SMB), also mention alternatives commonly used in Linux environments (e.g., NFS, SFTP) and link to their Azure documentation.
- Ensure that examples and recommendations are platform-neutral or explicitly provide both Windows and Linux options.
