Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-centric technologies (Active Directory, AD FS, Windows Hello for Business) and linking to Windows-specific concepts (security principals). There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform examples, and Windows tools and terminology are presented as the default or only option for identity management and device registration. Linux equivalents or guidance for non-Windows environments are missing throughout.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for Linux-based environments, such as integrating Azure identity management with Linux servers and applications.
- Reference cross-platform authentication methods and device registration, such as using FIDO2 keys on Linux or configuring SSO for Linux-based web apps.
- Provide links to documentation on managing identities and access for Linux and macOS devices, not just Windows domain-joined devices.
- Mention open standards and tools (e.g., SSSD, Kerberos, LDAP) that are commonly used in Linux environments for identity management.
- Ensure that terminology and examples do not assume a Windows-only infrastructure, and clarify support for heterogeneous environments.
