Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in the section describing GUID generation, where PowerShell's New-GUID cmdlet is mentioned explicitly as a method, with no Linux or cross-platform alternatives provided. The only tool referenced for this common development task is a Windows-specific one, and it is listed before generic alternatives ("any development tool, an online generator"). No Linux command-line example (such as uuidgen) is given. The rest of the documentation is platform-neutral, focusing on YAML, KQL, and Microsoft Sentinel concepts.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for GUID generation, such as the uuidgen command-line tool.
  • List platform-neutral or cross-platform methods first (e.g., 'any development tool, online generator'), then mention OS-specific tools.
  • Include example commands for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (uuidgen) to ensure parity.
  • Review other sections for similar tool references and ensure alternatives are provided for non-Windows environments.
