Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows-specific tools and patterns (Group Policy, Microsoft Update, WSUS) are mentioned before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents; PowerShell is referenced for extension management and onboarding, but Linux command-line examples are absent; onboarding guidance links to Windows/PowerShell-specific instructions without Linux parity; and automation tooling examples prioritize Microsoft Configuration Manager and Group Policy over Linux-first tools like Ansible.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific onboarding examples and guidance, including shell script and configuration file encryption best practices.
- Include Linux command-line examples (bash, shell, etc.) alongside PowerShell for extension management and onboarding.
- Reference Linux-native automation tools (e.g., Chef, Puppet, SaltStack) equally with Windows tools.
- Ensure links to onboarding guidance include Linux-focused documentation, not just Group Policy/PowerShell.
- Present update management instructions for Linux (apt, yum, etc.) before or alongside Windows update mechanisms.
- Clarify disk encryption recommendations with Linux-first examples (e.g., dm-crypt, LUKS) and provide parity with BitLocker.
