Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing examples and supported values that prioritize Windows operating systems. The device information example only shows Windows 7, and the supported OS values table lists Windows and Windows Server variants extensively before mentioning Linux and other non-Windows OSes. There are no Linux-specific examples or guidance, and the 'Next steps' section highlights Windows endpoint detection with no Linux equivalent.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific examples in device information tables and sample .csv files (e.g., show a row for a Linux device).
  • Expand the supported OS values table to list Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, Red Hat, CentOS) and other non-Windows OSes with equal detail as Windows.
  • Add 'Next steps' links or documentation for detecting and managing Linux endpoints, similar to the Windows script example.
  • Ensure instructions for creating and editing .csv files mention Linux-compatible tools (e.g., LibreOffice Calc, command-line CSV editors) alongside Excel.
  • Review all examples and instructions to provide parity for Linux environments, not just Windows.
