Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux examples for key security tasks, such as certificate generation and secret encryption. However, Windows examples (PowerShell) are often presented first, and Windows-specific tools (Windows Defender, Azure DSC, PowerShell commands) are discussed in dedicated sections. Windows terminology and tools are referenced more frequently, and some sections (Windows Defender, security baselines) are Windows-only, with Linux alternatives not always described. Linux examples are present but sometimes less detailed or positioned after Windows instructions.
Recommendations
  • Present Windows and Linux examples side-by-side or in parallel sections to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • Expand Linux-specific guidance for security baselines and antimalware, referencing common Linux tools (e.g., SELinux, AppArmor, ClamAV) or Azure-supported Linux security extensions.
  • Clarify when a feature or tool is Windows-only and provide Linux alternatives or explicitly state if none exist.
  • Ensure parity in detail and clarity between Windows and Linux instructions, especially for certificate and secret management.
  • Add links to Linux-focused documentation where only Windows links are currently provided.
