Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, particularly in the 'Malicious execution with legitimate process' section, which focuses on Windows-specific tools and techniques such as PowerShell and WMI. These examples are given without Linux/macOS equivalents or mention of cross-platform alternatives. The overall page is heavily oriented toward Microsoft cloud and security products, but the specific technical scenarios for detection and response reference Windows-centric attack patterns and tools first, with little to no coverage of Linux/macOS-specific threats or command-line tools.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples for Linux/macOS, such as detection of suspicious Bash or Python command execution, or remote SSH activity.
- Include references to Linux/macOS credential theft tools (e.g., 'LaZagne', 'John the Ripper') alongside Windows tools like Mimikatz.
- Expand coverage of attack techniques to include Linux/macOS-specific management and scripting interpreters (e.g., shell scripts, cron jobs, systemd abuse).
- Where PowerShell or WMI is mentioned, also discuss how similar malicious activity might be detected on non-Windows endpoints.
- Add scenarios for cloud resource abuse or data exfiltration that are relevant to Linux-based workloads.
