Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as AD FS, Windows Server Active Directory, and Windows Hello for Business) without mentioning Linux equivalents or alternatives. Windows-centric terminology and features are presented as defaults or primary options, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux-based identity infrastructure or hybrid environments involving Linux servers. The absence of Linux-focused instructions, tools, or parity in examples makes the documentation less inclusive for organizations running non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
- Include examples and guidance for securing identity infrastructure in Linux environments, such as integrating Linux servers with Microsoft Entra ID.
- Mention and provide instructions for Linux-compatible authentication methods (e.g., FIDO2 security keys, PAM integration, SSSD, or Azure AD authentication for Linux VMs).
- When discussing password protection and synchronization, clarify how these features apply to Linux-based systems or hybrid environments with Linux servers.
- Provide parity in monitoring and logging instructions, referencing SIEM tools and log integration methods commonly used on Linux (e.g., syslog, auditd, ELK stack).
- Reference open standards and cross-platform tools where possible, and avoid presenting Windows tools (AD FS, Windows Hello) as the only or default solution.
- Add sections or links to documentation for Linux administrators, including best practices for securing Linux identities with Microsoft Entra ID.
