Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform and explicitly states Trusted Launch applies to both Linux and Windows VMs. However, there are several subtle signs of Windows bias: Windows examples and references (such as ARM templates for Windows VMs) are listed first, links to Secure Boot and vTPM documentation point to Windows-focused resources, and virtualization-based security (VBS) and HVCI sections are Windows-only without clarifying their lack of Linux applicability. The only explicit example templates are for Windows VMs, with no Linux equivalents shown.
Recommendations
  • Add ARM template deployment examples for Linux VMs alongside Windows examples.
  • Include links to Linux-specific documentation for Secure Boot and vTPM, or clarify when referenced resources are Windows-only.
  • In sections describing features like VBS and HVCI, explicitly state that these are Windows-only and note Linux alternatives or limitations.
  • Ensure parity in example code, deployment walkthroughs, and troubleshooting steps for both Linux and Windows users.
