Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation prioritizes Windows environments and tools, providing more detailed instructions and support for Windows credentials, domain integration (Active Directory), and SQL Server discovery (which is only supported on Windows). Linux support is mentioned but lacks equivalent depth, with some features (e.g., SQL Server and ASP.NET web app discovery) explicitly not supported for Linux. There are no Linux-specific examples or step-by-step instructions, and Windows authentication patterns (domain credentials, DPAPI) are described in detail before Linux alternatives.
Recommendations:
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and step-by-step instructions for adding credentials, including screenshots or command-line examples where appropriate.
  • Clarify feature parity by explicitly stating which features are not supported on Linux and, where possible, provide timelines or alternatives.
  • Include Linux authentication mechanisms (e.g., SSH key-based authentication) and describe how to configure them in the appliance.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are given equal prominence in tables, lists, and descriptions.
  • If certain features are Windows-only, consider adding equivalent Linux discovery features or tools, or link to relevant documentation for Linux environments.
