Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. While it mentions both Linux and Windows in some areas (e.g., disk encryption), Windows tools, patterns, and terminology are often presented first or exclusively. There is a strong emphasis on Microsoft-centric solutions (e.g., BitLocker, privileged access workstation) with little or no mention of Linux-native or cross-platform alternatives. Examples and guidance for Linux users are minimal or missing in several sections.
Recommendations:
- Provide parallel Linux examples and tooling references wherever Windows or PowerShell tools are mentioned (e.g., include Linux secure workstation models, Linux-native encryption tools).
- When listing options (such as disk encryption), alternate the order or present Linux and Windows solutions together rather than always listing Windows first.
- Expand on Linux-specific best practices for secure management workstations, endpoint protection, and certificate deployment.
- Include sample commands or scripts for both Bash (Linux) and PowerShell (Windows) where relevant.
- Reference open-source or cross-platform tools and patterns where possible, not just Microsoft/Windows-centric solutions.
- Ensure that all sections (such as secure workstation, endpoint protection, and certificate management) address both Linux and Windows environments equally.
