AWS AmazonRDS documentation change
Summary
Added note about requiring IAM database authentication to be enabled for accessing IAM auth error logs
Security assessment
The change documents prerequisites for accessing security-related logs (IAM authentication errors) but does not address a specific vulnerability. It enhances documentation about security feature observability rather than introducing new security controls.
