Summary
The documentation page presents recommendations for both Linux and Windows images, but several signs of Windows bias are evident. In the Linux section, Windows terminology (e.g., 'Windows Server roles') appears, and some checks reference Windows-specific concepts. The Windows section includes recommendations for BitLocker and auto-update, but Linux equivalents (e.g., LUKS encryption, unattended-upgrades) are not mentioned. Additionally, Windows tools and patterns (BitLocker, HOSTS file) are referenced without Linux counterparts, and some recommendations are more detailed for Windows than Linux.
Recommendations
- Remove or clarify Windows-specific terminology in the Linux section (e.g., 'Windows Server roles').
- Add Linux equivalents for Windows-specific recommendations, such as mentioning LUKS for disk encryption and 'unattended-upgrades' for automatic security updates.
- Ensure that examples and recommendations for sensitive file removal reference Linux-specific files (e.g., /etc/hosts, .bash_history) alongside Windows files.
- Balance the level of detail between Windows and Linux sections, providing parity in actionable steps and tool references.
- Consider listing Linux recommendations before Windows recommendations or interleaving them to avoid implicit prioritization.
