Summary

Added new 'AWS STS global endpoint usage across AWS Regions' check to Trusted Advisor security controls

Security assessment

The change documents a new security-focused check for STS global endpoint configuration across regions. While this helps identify potential security misconfigurations, there is no explicit evidence it addresses an active security incident. It adds security documentation by describing a new preventive control for secure STS usage.
