Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by presenting Windows/Powershell examples first, using Windows-specific tools and cmdlets (e.g., New-SelfSignedCertificate, Export-Certificate, Import-PfxCertificate), and providing more detailed step-by-step instructions for Windows than for Linux. The Linux section is shorter, uses generic GPG commands, and lacks parity in guidance for certificate management and integration with Azure Policy. Additionally, certificate export and installation examples are only shown for Windows, with no equivalent Linux example.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side or alternate their order to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Expand Linux instructions to match the detail level of Windows, including step-by-step guidance for certificate creation, export, and installation.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for exporting and installing public keys, including commands for placing certificates in /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/gc and updating CA trust.
  • Include Linux equivalents for Azure Policy integration and certificate deployment, referencing relevant templates or scripts.
  • Use cross-platform language and tools where possible, and clarify when a step is OS-specific.
