Summary

Rephrased table entries about granting AWS access to external entities (on-premises workloads, IoT devices, and external code) for grammatical clarity

Security assessment

The changes are grammatical/phrasing improvements to existing security-related content (access control mechanisms). While the topic involves security features (IAM Roles Anywhere, IoT Device Management, STS), there is no evidence of addressing a specific vulnerability or adding new security documentation. The modifications only clarify existing guidance without altering technical substance.
