Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell, with all examples and tooling references centered on Windows PowerShell DSC and the PowerSTIG project, which is Windows-specific. There is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents, nor are there examples or guidance for configuring STIG baselines on non-Windows platforms. The only reference to Linux is a link about onboarding Linux machines, but no substantive content or examples are provided for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance and examples for configuring STIG baselines on Linux using Azure Automation State Configuration.
- Include references to Linux DSC resources or alternatives, such as cross-platform DSC implementations or Ansible/Chef for Linux.
- Clarify platform support and limitations for PowerSTIG and DSC, and provide links to Linux/macOS documentation where relevant.
- Present examples for both Windows and Linux side-by-side, or clearly indicate when a solution is Windows-only.
