Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell, with all examples and tools (such as PowerSTIG and DSC) being Windows-centric. There are no Linux-specific examples or equivalent Linux tooling mentioned, and the prerequisites and next steps all reference Windows PowerShell and related resources. Linux is only briefly mentioned in the context of onboarding, without any guidance or parity in configuration or tooling.
Recommendations
- Include Linux-specific examples for configuring STIG baselines, such as using Ansible, Chef, or native Linux DSC implementations.
- Mention and link to Linux equivalents for PowerSTIG or provide guidance on how to achieve similar compliance on Linux systems.
- Update the 'Next steps' section to include resources for Linux configuration management and compliance.
- Clarify in the introduction that the current guidance is Windows-focused, and provide a roadmap or references for Linux users.
- If Azure Automation State Configuration supports Linux, provide explicit walkthroughs or documentation links for Linux scenarios.
