Summary
The documentation presents Windows-specific patterns and examples before Linux equivalents in the Azure Security Baseline (ASB) section. Windows scoping syntax is explained in detail, while Linux is described as 'omitting Windows-specific scoping' without further elaboration. Windows examples use detailed server/role syntax, whereas Linux examples are simpler and less contextual. No PowerShell commands are shown, but the Windows-centric configuration pattern may be unfamiliar to Linux users. The overall structure gives Windows more prominence and detail.
Recommendations
- Provide equally detailed Linux examples, including any distro-specific or role-based scoping if available.
- Clarify Linux rule/value patterns and possible variations, not just state that Windows-specific scoping is omitted.
- Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side or alternate their order to avoid Windows-first bias.
- Explicitly mention how Linux users should interpret or adapt the schema, especially if certain features are Windows-only.
