Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by referencing BitLocker (a Windows-only encryption tool), instructing VPN configuration via PowerShell (Windows-centric), and omitting any Linux-specific tools, commands, or examples. There are no instructions or parity for Linux users, such as using OpenSSL for certificates or Linux-native encryption solutions. The only scripting example referenced is PowerShell, and BitLocker is assumed as the encryption-at-rest solution, with no mention of alternatives for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific instructions for certificate management, such as using OpenSSL commands to generate and manage certificates.
- Include VPN configuration steps using cross-platform or Linux-native tools (e.g., strongSwan, OpenVPN) alongside or instead of PowerShell.
- Mention and document Linux-compatible encryption-at-rest solutions (e.g., LUKS/dm-crypt) if supported, or clarify if BitLocker is mandatory and why.
- Ensure all command-line examples are provided for both Windows (PowerShell/Command Prompt) and Linux (Bash/shell) environments.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and, if Windows-only tools are required, offer guidance for Linux users (such as using a Windows VM or container, or alternative approaches).
