🔧 Windows Tools Powershell Heavy Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation is exclusively focused on configuring traffic mirroring using Hyper-V, a Windows-only virtualization platform, and all examples use Windows tools such as PowerShell and Hyper-V Manager. There are no references to Linux virtualization technologies (e.g., KVM, libvirt, Open vSwitch), nor are there any Linux command-line examples or parity guidance for non-Windows environments. The structure and flow of the documentation assume a Windows context throughout.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for Linux-based virtualization platforms, such as KVM/QEMU with Open vSwitch, or libvirt.
  • Provide Linux command-line examples (e.g., using ovs-vsctl for Open vSwitch) for traffic mirroring and SPAN port configuration.
  • Include a section comparing Hyper-V and Linux alternatives, and guidance for users operating in non-Windows environments.
  • Clarify in the prerequisites or introduction that the guide is Windows-specific, and link to Linux-focused documentation if available.
  • Ensure future documentation covers cross-platform scenarios, or explicitly states platform limitations.

Windows First 🔧 Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through its references to Windows-based protocols (e.g., OPC as a standard protocol for Windows-based SCADA systems) and the exclusive focus on Microsoft tools and services (Microsoft Sentinel, Defender for IoT, etc.). There are no examples, instructions, or mentions of Linux-specific tools, workflows, or integration patterns. The documentation assumes the use of Microsoft-centric environments and omits Linux alternatives or parity in examples and guidance.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific integration examples, such as how to forward syslog from Defender for IoT OT sensors to Palo Alto using Linux-based tools or scripts.
  • Mention and provide guidance for using open-source SIEM/SOAR solutions (e.g., ELK Stack, Wazuh) for organizations not using Microsoft Sentinel.
  • Clarify whether the OT sensor management interface and APIs are accessible and supported on Linux systems, and provide relevant instructions if so.
  • Add examples of configuring DNS lookup and forwarding rules using Linux command-line tools (e.g., dig, nslookup, curl) where applicable.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements and compatibility for all steps, including whether Linux-based environments are supported for integration tasks.

Windows First 🔧 Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and terminology (e.g., Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID, Windows workstation/server enrichment scripts) are mentioned, sometimes without Linux equivalents or with Windows examples given first. There are features and instructions that reference Windows environments and tools, but Linux environments are less emphasized, and Linux-specific examples are often missing or less detailed. While there is some mention of Linux (e.g., Debian-based sensors), parity in examples and instructions is lacking.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially for features like enrichment scripts, SSO, and integration.
  • When referencing tools (e.g., Active Directory), mention Linux alternatives (e.g., LDAP) and provide guidance for Linux environments.
  • Ensure that protocol and troubleshooting instructions include Linux CLI and configuration examples, not just Windows-centric workflows.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally (not Windows first).
  • Add explicit sections or callouts for Linux deployment, management, and troubleshooting where relevant.

  • When listing command-line tools, mention Linux-native tools (e.g., Bash scripts) and their usage for firmware analysis.
  • Ensure that all instructions and examples are platform-agnostic or provide parallel guidance for Linux/macOS users.

Powershell Heavy 🔧 Windows Tools Windows First
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is mentioned as a primary method for role assignment in Azure, and Active Directory (a Windows-centric technology) is referenced repeatedly for on-premises user management and global access groups. There are no explicit Linux/macOS command-line examples or mentions of equivalent tools (e.g., Azure CLI, LDAP on Linux), and Windows-centric patterns (PowerShell, Active Directory) are presented before any alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for role assignments, with explicit Linux/macOS usage instructions.
  • Mention and provide examples for integrating with non-Active Directory LDAP servers (e.g., OpenLDAP) for on-premises sensors.
  • Clarify which management tasks can be performed from non-Windows platforms and provide parity in instructions.
  • Add notes or sections highlighting Linux/macOS compatibility and alternative workflows where relevant.

Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page shows a moderate Windows bias. Windows operating systems are listed first and most extensively in the supported OS values table, with Linux and macOS mentioned only at the end. The only example given for device information uses Windows 7, and there are no Linux or macOS examples. The 'Next steps' section links to a Windows-specific script, with no Linux/macOS equivalent. However, the procedures themselves are not Windows-specific and could be followed by users on any platform.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux and macOS examples in the 'Device information example' table, e.g., show a row for a Linux device and a macOS device.
  • In the 'Supported values for Device operating system' table, list Linux and macOS alongside Windows, not after, and provide more parity in detail for non-Windows OSes.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, include links to Linux/macOS endpoint detection or relevant scripts, or clarify if such scripts are not available.
  • Wherever Excel is mentioned, note that any spreadsheet editor (including LibreOffice Calc or Google Sheets) can be used, to avoid implicit Windows bias.
