Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, particularly in the sections related to password management and VM auditing. Windows VM password policies are described in detail, with multiple audit controls and explicit requirements, while Linux VM controls are mentioned but with less specificity and fewer examples. Windows VM password complexity and aging policies are listed, but equivalent Linux controls (e.g., PAM configuration, shadow file settings) are not discussed. Additionally, Windows VM audit results are presented before Linux VM results, and Windows-specific controls (e.g., password re-use, reversible encryption) are included without Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Linux VM password management controls and examples, such as auditing PAM configuration, password aging, and complexity requirements.
- Provide Linux-specific audit policies for password re-use and encryption, or clarify if these are not applicable.
- Ensure that Linux VM audit results and controls are presented with equal detail and prominence as Windows VM controls.
- Include examples or references for managing Linux VM security settings (e.g., passwd/shadow file permissions, password policies) alongside Windows examples.
- Consider listing Linux and Windows controls together, or alternating their order, to avoid implicit prioritization.
