Document Details

The documentation provides parity between Linux and Windows by using tabbed sections for each platform, but there is evidence of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (such as DSC modules, Windows Defender, ServerManager, SecurityPolicyDsc, and Windows Failover Clustering) are mentioned explicitly, while Linux equivalents (such as systemd, firewalld, or SELinux) are not named. In the operating system configuration section, Windows tasks are listed first and in greater detail, with specific modules and components called out. The use of PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) modules is highlighted for Windows, but no similar configuration management tools (like Ansible roles for Linux hardening) are referenced for Linux. The scripts and playbook commands are Bash-based for both platforms, but Windows-specific environment variables and Azure Key Vault usage are more prominent.
