AWS connect medium security documentation change
Summary
Updated AI prompt documentation with enhanced input validation, multi-language support, and malicious query detection. Added region-specific LLM model support table and updated CLI examples.
Security assessment
The changes introduce structured validation steps (<malice> detection) to prevent harmful language/persona manipulation in AI responses, add language enforcement to prevent localization attacks, and include explicit examples of handling malicious queries. These changes directly address security controls around AI prompt injection and output sanitization.
