Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias primarily in the 'ID' section, where PowerShell's New-GUID cmdlet is explicitly mentioned as a way to generate GUIDs, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. Windows/PowerShell tooling is referenced first and exclusively, and there are no Linux or platform-neutral examples for GUID generation. The rest of the documentation is generally platform-agnostic, focusing on YAML, KQL, and Microsoft Sentinel concepts, but the only concrete tooling example is Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux and cross-platform alternatives for GUID generation, such as 'uuidgen' (Linux/macOS) or Python's uuid module.
  • Present platform-neutral instructions first, e.g., 'You can generate a GUID using any development tool, online generator, or command-line utility such as PowerShell (New-GUID), Linux (uuidgen), or Python (uuid.uuid4()).'
  • Wherever a tool or command is referenced, provide both Windows and Linux/macOS equivalents, or use generic language.
  • Audit other sections for subtle platform assumptions and clarify if any tool or pattern is Windows-specific.
