Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias, especially in sections discussing SMB encryption, UNC hardening, and LDAP signing, where Windows tools and terminology (Active Directory, Group Policy, UNC paths) are referenced first and in detail. Windows-specific features and security advisories are highlighted, while Linux/macOS equivalents (such as Samba for SMB or OpenLDAP for LDAP) are not mentioned or provided as examples. There are no explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples or configuration references, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows-centric patterns.
Recommendations
- Include Linux/macOS-specific examples for SMB encryption (e.g., Samba configuration for SMB3 encryption).
- Provide guidance for configuring NFS Kerberos and LDAP encryption on Linux clients and servers (e.g., using MIT Kerberos, OpenLDAP, sssd, etc.).
- Reference cross-platform tools and configuration steps, not just Windows Group Policy or Active Directory.
- Add parity in troubleshooting and performance sections for Linux/macOS environments.
- Clarify which features are available and supported for non-Windows clients, and note any limitations.
