Summary
The documentation generally presents Azure Change Tracking and Inventory as supporting both Windows and Linux. However, there is a notable Windows bias in the 'Track registry keys' section, which exclusively discusses Windows registry monitoring without mentioning Linux equivalents (such as Linux configuration files or system settings). Windows terminology and examples (e.g., registry keys, Internet Explorer, Windows Explorer) are presented without Linux counterparts or guidance. Most examples and screenshots are generic or mention both platforms, but Windows-specific tools and concepts are described in detail, while Linux-specific monitoring is not.
Recommendations
- Add a section describing Linux-specific configuration monitoring, such as tracking changes in key configuration files (e.g., /etc/passwd, /etc/ssh/sshd_config) or systemd service files.
- Provide Linux examples alongside Windows ones, especially in sections that currently only discuss Windows concepts (e.g., registry keys).
- Clarify which features are Windows-only and which are cross-platform, to help Linux users understand what is supported.
- Include screenshots or walkthroughs for Linux systems where appropriate.
- Explicitly mention how Linux daemons and configuration files are tracked, similar to the detailed Windows registry coverage.
