Summary
The documentation generally covers both Windows and Linux scenarios for Service Fabric security, but there is a noticeable pattern of Windows-first presentation, especially in sections about certificate management and encryption. Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Windows Defender, Azure DSC) are discussed in detail, sometimes with limited or no Linux equivalents or guidance. Some sections, such as Windows Defender and security baselines, are Windows-only, but this is appropriate. However, in other areas, Windows examples and tools are presented before Linux equivalents, and some advanced configuration (e.g., antimalware exclusions) lacks Linux guidance.
Recommendations
- When presenting cross-platform procedures (such as certificate creation and secret encryption), alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples or present them side-by-side.
- Where Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Windows Defender, Azure DSC) are discussed, add clear notes or equivalent Linux guidance (e.g., using ClamAV or other Linux antimalware solutions, or how to configure Linux security baselines).
- For sections that only provide Windows examples (such as antimalware exclusions), explicitly state if there is no Linux equivalent or provide links to Linux security best practices.
- Ensure that all critical security workflows (certificate management, secret encryption, managed identity usage) have complete Linux examples and not just links to separate articles.
- Consider adding a summary table at the start of the document indicating which features or practices are Windows-only, Linux-only, or cross-platform.
