File: systems-manager/latest/userguide/explore-nodes-manage-report-display.md

Summary

Changed section title from 'Diagnosing and remediating' to 'Just-in-time node access using Systems Manager'

Security assessment

The change introduces documentation about just-in-time (JIT) node access, which is a security feature that limits persistent access to resources. While this enhances security posture by promoting temporary access, there's no evidence of addressing a specific existing vulnerability.
