Summary

Updated compliance documentation to remove specific HIPAA/PCI claims and added comprehensive guidance about AWS compliance resources including Security Hub, GuardDuty, Audit Manager, and compliance frameworks

Security assessment

The changes provide general compliance guidance rather than addressing a specific vulnerability. While security services are documented, there's no evidence of patching a security flaw or incident response.
