Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing Windows data sources (e.g., Windows Security Events, Windows Events) before Linux equivalents (e.g., Syslog, CEF), and by referencing Windows-specific tools such as the Azure Monitoring Agent (AMA) primarily in the context of Windows VMs. There are no explicit examples or guidance for collecting Linux-specific logs (such as syslog or auditd) or for configuring Linux agents, and Linux collection patterns are not described in detail. The documentation also lacks parity in describing how Linux data sources are onboarded, routed, or managed compared to Windows.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples and guidance for collecting logs from Linux VMs, such as syslog, auditd, or other Linux-specific sources.
  • Describe how the Azure Monitoring Agent (AMA) can be used on Linux VMs, including configuration steps and routing options.
  • Provide Linux-focused workspace design scenarios, or ensure that existing scenarios mention Linux alongside Windows when discussing data sources and agent deployment.
  • List Linux data sources (e.g., syslog, CEF) alongside Windows sources, and avoid always mentioning Windows first.
  • Add references to Linux documentation and troubleshooting guides for Sentinel workspace onboarding.
