Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows-centric technologies such as ASP.NET, ADFS, and web.config, with all code/configuration examples targeting Windows/IIS environments. There are no examples or references for Linux or cross-platform equivalents (e.g., Nginx/Apache config, .NET Core on Linux, or non-Windows identity providers). Powershell is used for ADFS configuration, and all cookie/session management examples use Windows-specific XML config files. Linux/macOS users are left without guidance for implementing these mitigations in their environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples for Linux-based web servers (e.g., Nginx, Apache) for secure cookie/session management.
  • Include .NET Core cross-platform code/configuration samples, especially for session and authentication management.
  • Offer guidance for configuring identity/logout flows with non-Windows identity providers (e.g., Keycloak, Auth0) and open standards.
  • Replace or supplement Powershell commands with bash or cross-platform CLI alternatives where possible.
  • Clarify which mitigations are applicable to Windows-only environments and which can be adapted for Linux/macOS.
