Summary
The documentation shows some Windows bias, notably by referencing Windows Server roles and features in the Linux section, listing Windows-specific tools (BitLocker) only for Windows, and omitting equivalent Linux examples (e.g., disk encryption, auto-update configuration). Windows terminology is sometimes used before or in place of Linux equivalents, and some recommendations for Windows (like BitLocker and auto-update) lack Linux counterparts.
Recommendations
  • Remove references to 'Windows Server roles, features, services' from the Linux section and replace with Linux-specific terms (e.g., 'Linux services, daemons, packages').
  • Add Linux equivalents for Windows-specific recommendations, such as recommending disk encryption tools like LUKS or dm-crypt for Linux images.
  • Provide guidance for configuring automatic security updates on Linux (e.g., using unattended-upgrades or dnf-automatic).
  • Ensure that examples and recommendations for both platforms are equally detailed and platform-specific.
  • When listing recommendations, avoid using Windows terminology in Linux sections and vice versa.
  • Include Linux-specific tools and best practices where Windows-specific tools are mentioned.
