Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. In several policy tables, Windows-specific policies (e.g., 'Windows machines should be configured to use secure communication protocols') are listed without equivalent Linux examples, or Windows policies are listed before Linux ones. There are also more granular and numerous password and security policies for Windows than for Linux, and some controls reference Windows tools or settings without Linux parity. Linux is represented, but not as comprehensively or as early in the lists.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that for every Windows-specific policy or example, a Linux equivalent is provided where applicable, and vice versa.
- Present Linux and Windows policies/examples in parallel or grouped together, rather than listing all Windows items first.
- Expand Linux coverage to match the granularity of Windows controls (e.g., password complexity, password age, etc.).
- Avoid referencing Windows tools or settings (such as Group Policy or Windows-specific password policies) without also providing Linux alternatives (e.g., PAM, passwd, chage).
- Where a policy is only applicable to one OS, clearly state this and explain why, to avoid the perception of bias.
