Summary
The documentation page demonstrates several types of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., BitLocker, Windows Defender, WSUS) and PowerShell cmdlets are referenced without equivalent Linux examples or commands. In some sections, Windows solutions are mentioned first or exclusively, and Linux alternatives are either briefly referenced or omitted. For example, disk encryption and backup instructions use PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-centric terminology, while Linux equivalents (such as CLI commands or Linux-native tooling) are not provided. Antimalware recommendations include Windows Defender and System Center Endpoint Protection, but do not mention popular Linux solutions. Diagnostic and monitoring extensions are described for Windows VMs, with limited mention of Linux support. Overall, Linux users may find it difficult to follow or adapt some best practices due to the lack of parity in examples and tooling.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific examples and commands (e.g., Bash/CLI equivalents for PowerShell cmdlets).
- List Linux tools and solutions for antimalware (e.g., ClamAV, Sophos, ESET) alongside Windows options.
- Explicitly mention Linux support for monitoring, diagnostics, and backup solutions, including links to relevant documentation.
- Ensure that instructions for disk encryption, backup, and update management include Linux-specific steps and references.
- Present Windows and Linux guidance in parallel, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
