Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments and tooling. Examples and deployment instructions frequently reference Windows-specific tools (such as PowerShell and ARM templates via the Azure portal), and Windows-centric event sources (e.g., Microsoft-Windows-Sysmon) are used in filtering examples. There is a lack of parity in providing Linux-specific instructions, tools, or examples, such as using Azure CLI, Bash, or Linux-native log sources and deployment methods. Linux alternatives are not mentioned or are omitted entirely, and Windows/PowerShell methods are presented first or exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific deployment instructions, such as using Azure CLI or Bash scripts for ARM template deployment.
  • Include examples using Linux log sources (e.g., Syslog, Auditd) alongside Windows event sources in filtering and parsing sections.
  • Mention Linux-native tools for managing and deploying parsers, such as az CLI, and provide equivalent steps for Linux users.
  • When referencing PowerShell scripts or Windows portal actions, offer parallel instructions for Linux environments.
  • Ensure that sample queries and code snippets include both Windows and Linux event types and field names.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility and highlight any platform-specific considerations.
