Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias towards Windows environments and Microsoft technologies. Examples and configuration snippets are almost exclusively for .NET, WCF, and ASP.NET, with references to Windows roles, Windows groups, and Microsoft-specific identity providers (ADFS, Entra ID). There are no Linux-specific examples, nor are Linux tools, patterns, or equivalents mentioned. Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Builtin\Administrators', 'machine.config', 'app.config') is used without cross-platform alternatives or parity guidance.
Recommendations
- Include Linux-specific examples for authorization, such as using POSIX ACLs, sudoers configuration, or systemd service permissions.
- Mention Linux equivalents for user privilege management, e.g., use of /etc/passwd, /etc/group, and PAM modules.
- Provide cross-platform code/configuration samples, such as showing both Windows and Linux ways to restrict access to files, directories, and services.
- Reference identity providers and authentication mechanisms common in Linux environments (e.g., LDAP, Kerberos, OAuth2 providers like Keycloak).
- When discussing RBAC, include Azure CLI and PowerShell examples alongside Bash and Linux command-line tools.
- Clarify when recommendations are generic and when they are Windows-specific, and offer Linux alternatives where applicable.
