Summary
The documentation page describes Azure threat protection services in a platform-neutral way, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. For example, 'Microsoft Defender for Servers' explicitly mentions protection for both Windows and Linux machines, but the rest of the page does not provide platform-specific examples, commands, or tooling. There are no Linux-specific instructions, CLI examples, or references to Linux-native security tools, while Microsoft Antimalware is a Windows-centric solution and is presented without Linux alternatives. The documentation does not mention Linux security patterns or tools, nor does it provide parity in examples or guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux-focused examples and instructions for configuring and using Defender for Cloud and other services on Linux VMs.
- Include references to Linux-native security tools (e.g., auditd, SELinux, AppArmor) and how they integrate with Azure threat protection.
- Provide CLI and scripting examples using Bash and Azure CLI, not just PowerShell or Windows-centric tools.
- Clarify which services and features are available or behave differently on Linux versus Windows, and link to platform-specific documentation where appropriate.
- Mention Linux antimalware solutions (e.g., Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on Linux, ClamAV) and how they can be used in Azure environments.
