Summary
The documentation for connecting Microsoft Sentinel to AWS log data exhibits a Windows bias in several areas. The automatic setup process is centered around a PowerShell script, with explicit instructions to install PowerShell and run commands from a PowerShell command line. There are no equivalent instructions or scripts for Linux/macOS users, nor is there guidance for running the automation on those platforms. The prerequisites and step-by-step instructions assume a Windows environment, and PowerShell is mentioned before the AWS CLI, reinforcing the Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
- Provide clear instructions for running the automatic setup script on Linux and macOS, including any necessary dependencies (e.g., bash, Python).
- Offer a bash or Python version of the setup script, or document how to run the PowerShell script using PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS.
- Include example commands and screenshots for Linux/macOS terminals alongside Windows/PowerShell examples.
- Clarify whether the PowerShell script is compatible with PowerShell Core on non-Windows platforms, and provide troubleshooting tips for cross-platform use.
- List prerequisites for Linux/macOS users (e.g., package managers, installation commands for PowerShell Core and AWS CLI).
