Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments. All deployment, configuration, and monitoring instructions are specific to Windows Server and Windows-based Azure VMs. PowerShell is the only CLI tool mentioned, and all examples, code samples, and screenshots reference Windows tools and workflows. Linux is explicitly stated as unsupported, and there are no instructions or guidance for Linux VMs or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
- Clearly state Linux is unsupported at the top of the document to set expectations.
- If partial Linux support exists (e.g., via Defender for Cloud), provide links and guidance for Linux users.
- Offer parity in documentation by including alternative security solutions for Linux VMs in Azure, such as integration with third-party antimalware or Defender for Endpoint on Linux.
- Add a comparison table of supported OSes and features to clarify gaps.
- If future support for Linux is planned, include a roadmap or guidance for Linux users.
