Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific technologies (e.g., SMB 3.0 for encryption), linking to Windows documentation, and mentioning Windows tools or protocols without Linux equivalents or parity. In some cases, Linux is mentioned, but only after Windows, and there is a lack of Linux-specific examples or guidance for several security controls.
Recommendations:
- When referencing protocols like SMB, also mention NFS or other Linux-friendly protocols for Azure File Shares, and provide links to relevant Linux documentation.
- Ensure that encryption guidance for Azure Disk Encryption links to both Linux and Windows documentation equally, and in parallel, not with Windows first or exclusively.
- Add Linux-specific examples or references for operational security tasks, such as using Linux command-line tools or scripts for monitoring, access control, and encryption.
- Where tools or protocols are Windows-centric (e.g., SMB), explicitly note Linux alternatives and provide guidance for Linux users.
- Review all checklist items to ensure Linux and open-source tool parity, and avoid defaulting to Windows-first language or examples.
