Summary
The documentation contains several Windows-centric examples and terminology, such as Windows-style hostnames (e.g., 'DESKTOP-1282V4D'), Windows domain formats (e.g., 'Contoso\DESKTOP-1282V4D'), and process paths (e.g., 'C:\Windows\explorer.exe'). Windows terms and formats are mentioned first or exclusively in many field descriptions, while Linux/macOS equivalents are not provided or are only briefly referenced. This may create friction for Linux/macOS users trying to map their data to the schema.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/macOS-specific examples alongside Windows examples for fields like hostnames, FQDNs, and process names (e.g., 'ubuntu-server', '/usr/bin/sshd').
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS formats for fields that currently only show Windows formats (e.g., show both 'Contoso\DESKTOP-1282V4D' and 'ubuntu-server.example.com').
  • Clarify that fields such as process IDs, hostnames, and FQDNs are OS-agnostic and provide normalization guidance for non-Windows systems.
  • Where Windows terminology is used (e.g., 'Windows domain'), add equivalent Linux/macOS terminology or note differences.
  • Ensure that examples and field descriptions do not imply Windows as the default or only supported platform.
