Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in the password management and audit controls, where only Windows VM password policies are explicitly listed and audited (e.g., password complexity, age, length, reuse), while equivalent Linux password management controls (such as PAM configuration, shadow file settings, etc.) are not mentioned. Additionally, Windows VM audit results are detailed, but Linux VM examples are limited to password file permissions and accounts without passwords, omitting broader Linux security controls. Windows-specific terminology and controls are presented before or instead of Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Linux VM password management controls and audit policies, such as minimum password length, complexity, age, and reuse restrictions using PAM or shadow file settings.
- Provide Linux-specific examples and audit results for password management, not just file permissions or accounts without passwords.
- Ensure that both Windows and Linux controls are presented in parallel, with equal detail and prominence.
- Include references to Linux security tools and configuration patterns (e.g., auditd, PAM, chage, passwd) where relevant.
- Review all sections for parity in examples, terminology, and actionable guidance for both Windows and Linux environments.
