Summary:
The documentation generally maintains a cross-platform tone, but in the 'Encryption at rest' section, Windows BitLocker is specifically recommended for Windows, while Linux is mentioned only generically ('Linux has several options for encryption at rest'). No specific Linux tools or examples are provided, and the Windows tool is mentioned by name and linked, giving Windows users a clearer path.
Recommendations:
- List specific Linux encryption tools (e.g., LUKS, dm-crypt, eCryptfs) alongside BitLocker, and provide links to their documentation.
- Present Linux and Windows options in parallel structure, e.g., 'For Linux, consider [LUKS](https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup), [dm-crypt](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt), or [eCryptfs](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Ecryptfs). For Windows, [BitLocker](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/operating-system-security/data-protection/bitlocker) is recommended.'
- Where possible, provide example commands or configuration snippets for both Linux and Windows to ensure parity.
- Review other sections for opportunities to add Linux-specific guidance or examples, even if only brief, to reinforce cross-platform support.
