Summary
The documentation page lists ASIM parsers for a wide range of sources, including both Windows and Linux systems. However, Windows-centric sources (e.g., Microsoft Windows Events, Sysmon for Windows, Microsoft Defender XDR, Windows Security Events) are consistently listed and described in detail, often before or with more specificity than their Linux equivalents. Windows-specific tools and event IDs are frequently referenced, while Linux sources are present but less emphasized and sometimes grouped generically (e.g., 'Linux sshd activity reported using Syslog'). There are no explicit PowerShell examples or commands, but the overall structure and detail favor Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux sources are described with equal specificity, including event IDs, collection methods, and connector details.
- Add more detailed notes for Linux parsers, similar to the Windows entries (e.g., specify which Syslog facilities, event types, or collection agents are supported).
- Where Windows and Linux equivalents exist, list them together or alternate their order to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Provide explicit examples or references for Linux data collection and normalization workflows, matching the detail given for Windows.
- Review parser tables to ensure Linux tools (e.g., auditd, journald, rsyslog) are mentioned where relevant, not just generic 'Syslog'.
