Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific security features (BitLocker, credential protection, malware prevention on Windows) before Linux equivalents, and by listing Windows guest OS versions before Linux in prerequisites. There are no Linux-specific examples or mentions of Linux security tooling (e.g., LUKS, dm-crypt) in the context of vTPM usage, and the security benefits are described primarily in terms of Windows scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples of vTPM usage for Linux VMs, such as enabling disk encryption with LUKS or using vTPM for secure boot attestation in Linux.
- List Linux guest OS support before or alongside Windows in prerequisites to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Describe security benefits for Linux workloads (e.g., protection of SSH keys, kernel module verification) in addition to Windows-specific features.
- Reference Linux migration tools and document any vTPM-related caveats for Linux VM migration.
- Include screenshots or step-by-step instructions for configuring vTPM on Linux VMs, if there are any OS-specific steps.
