Summary
The documentation demonstrates subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific features (such as the Windows certificate store) and highlighting TPM support as standard on Windows devices. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform examples, nor are Linux equivalents (e.g., Linux certificate stores, TPM support on Linux) mentioned. The only OS-specific references are to Windows, and no command-line or tooling examples are provided for Linux environments.
Recommendations
- When mentioning the Windows certificate store, also mention Linux equivalents such as /etc/ssl/certs, PKCS#11 modules, or common Linux certificate management practices.
- Note that TPM support is available on many Linux distributions, and reference relevant Linux TPM tools (e.g., tpm2-tools) and libraries.
- Provide examples or references for certificate installation and management on both Windows and Linux platforms.
- When discussing device manufacturing and provisioning, include OS-agnostic language or explicitly address both Windows and Linux workflows.
- If mentioning software tools for certificate installation or quality checks, suggest or link to cross-platform or Linux-compatible tools.
- Consider adding a section or callout that addresses cross-platform considerations and best practices for both Windows and Linux device manufacturers.
