Summary
The documentation exclusively provides PowerShell code samples and references Windows-centric tools and configuration patterns (e.g., .exe processes, C:\ paths, XML config with Windows-style exclusions). There are no Bash, CLI, or Linux/macOS examples, nor any mention of Linux-specific Antimalware extension support or configuration. This creates friction for Linux users seeking parity or guidance.
Recommendations
- Clarify in the introduction whether Microsoft Antimalware is Windows-only, or explicitly state platform limitations.
- If Linux support exists, provide equivalent Bash/CLI examples for deploying and configuring the Antimalware extension on Linux VMs or Arc-enabled Linux servers.
- Reference Linux-specific configuration patterns (e.g., Linux file paths, process names) in sample exclusion lists.
- If Antimalware is not supported on Linux, add a clear note to inform users and direct them to Linux security solutions (e.g., Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on Linux).
