Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows and Windows Server are mentioned explicitly as examples for SMB 3.0 encryption, while Linux equivalents are not discussed. The list of Microsoft Defender for Cloud blog posts includes a PowerShell attack example before Linux-specific attack examples. There is a general tendency to mention Windows technologies and tools first or exclusively, with limited explicit Linux guidance or parity in examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit references to Linux support for SMB 3.0 encryption and clarify how Linux VMs can leverage encryption in transit and at rest.
  • Include Linux-specific examples and guidance for client-side encryption, especially for popular languages and libraries used on Linux.
  • Balance blog post references by listing Linux-related security scenarios alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples.
  • Where Windows tools or protocols are mentioned (e.g., SMB 3.0), provide equivalent Linux commands, tools, or configuration guidance.
  • Ensure that all best practice sections offer platform-agnostic advice, or clearly indicate how Linux/macOS users can achieve the same security outcomes.
