Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: field examples and descriptions frequently use Windows-centric paths, tools, and concepts (e.g., C:\Windows\explorer.exe, Registry keys, PsExec), and there are no Linux or cross-platform examples provided. Windows terminology and artifacts are referenced exclusively, and Linux equivalents are not mentioned or illustrated.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-based examples alongside Windows ones for fields such as FilePath (e.g., /usr/bin/sshd), ProcessName, and Registry (or note the absence of a Linux equivalent).
- Include cross-platform or Linux-specific tools (e.g., SSH, systemd, auditd) in rule and threat examples, not just Windows tools like PsExec.
- Clarify in field descriptions when a concept is Windows-specific (e.g., Registry fields), and suggest how to handle or map similar data from Linux or macOS systems.
- Provide at least one end-to-end example for a Linux-originating alert event, showing how fields would be populated.
- Review enumerated values and examples for user and process fields to ensure they are not solely Windows-centric (e.g., include Linux username formats, UIDs, and process paths).
