Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments by referencing Windows-specific tools (e.g., Visual Studio, Microsoft Antimalware, Microsoft Defender Antivirus in Windows, Attack Surface Analyzer), linking to Windows-centric resources, and omitting Linux or cross-platform alternatives for several security practices. Linux tools and workflows are not mentioned, and examples or guidance are not provided for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations:
- Include Linux and cross-platform alternatives for all referenced tools (e.g., suggest VS Code, JetBrains IDEs, or command-line git for code reviews; ClamAV or Sophos for antimalware; Lynis or OpenSCAP for system security scanning).
- When mentioning Windows tools, also mention equivalent Linux tools in the same context, and avoid presenting Windows tools first unless they are truly cross-platform.
- Provide examples or links for performing tasks (such as removing server headers, performing static code analysis, or running security verification tests) on Linux-based Azure environments.
- Reference documentation or blog posts that address security best practices for Linux-based Azure deployments.
- Ensure that all security recommendations are accompanied by platform-agnostic guidance or parallel instructions for both Windows and Linux environments.
