Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias throughout. Windows-specific tools (AppLocker, Hyper-V, Group Policy, Windows Firewall, BitLocker, MMC, Windows Intune) are mentioned exclusively or before any cross-platform alternatives. Administrative examples and recommendations focus on Windows environments, with repeated references to Windows PowerShell for Azure management and no Linux or macOS equivalents. There is a lack of Linux-specific guidance, examples, or tool recommendations for hardening, remote management, or workstation configuration. The document assumes Active Directory and Windows-centric security patterns, omitting mention of Linux firewalls (iptables, nftables), SELinux/AppArmor, Linux VPN clients, or Linux-based management workflows.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific examples for remote management, workstation hardening, and Azure administration (e.g., using Azure CLI on Linux, SSH-based workflows, Linux firewall configuration).
  • Mention Linux equivalents for Windows tools, such as AppArmor/SELinux for application control, iptables/nftables for firewall, and Linux disk encryption (LUKS) for BitLocker.
  • Provide guidance for managing Azure resources from Linux and macOS, including relevant command-line tools (Azure CLI, Terraform, Ansible) and security best practices.
  • Add sections or tables comparing Windows and Linux approaches to workstation hardening, remote access, and policy enforcement.
  • Reference cross-platform identity and authentication solutions, such as SSSD, LDAP, or PAM, alongside Active Directory.
  • Ensure that PowerShell examples are accompanied by Azure CLI or Bash alternatives for parity.
