Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
Summary:
The documentation references the 'Cryptography API: Next Generation' (CNG), which is a Windows-specific cryptographic module, as the source for more information about Azure data encryption. No equivalent Linux or cross-platform cryptographic modules or standards are mentioned. There are no command-line examples, so there is no bias in example commands, but the reference to Windows cryptography tools is a subtle form of Windows bias.
Recommendations:
- When referencing cryptographic modules or APIs, include cross-platform or Linux-relevant standards (e.g., OpenSSL, Linux kernel crypto modules) alongside Windows-specific ones.
- Provide links or references to general cryptographic standards (such as FIPS 140-2, NIST publications) that are not tied to a specific operating system.
- If mentioning Windows-specific tools or APIs, add a note or section about equivalent Linux or open-source cryptographic libraries and how they relate to Azure's encryption implementation.
