Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows and PowerShell. All code samples, authentication steps, and environment variable setup instructions use PowerShell, with no equivalent Bash, CLI, or Python examples for Linux/macOS users. The authentication workflow assumes access to Windows paths and PowerShell-specific encryption methods. While Linux VM extensions are mentioned in prerequisites, the actual implementation and automation steps are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash, Azure CLI, or Python examples for all PowerShell scripts, especially for authentication and packet capture initiation.
  • Include instructions for generating and storing encrypted credentials on Linux/macOS, avoiding Windows-specific file paths and PowerShell-only encryption.
  • Explicitly document any differences or requirements for Linux/macOS users, such as using the Azure CLI or REST API from Azure Functions.
  • Where possible, show both Windows and Linux workflows side-by-side, or indicate which steps are platform-agnostic.
  • Add references to Linux/macOS tools and patterns (e.g., using environment variables, file storage locations, and scripting best practices).
