AWS systems-manager documentation change
Summary
Updated procedure steps for CloudFormation template management, simplified navigation paths, and replaced CloudFormation Designer reference with Infrastructure Composer. Adjusted step numbering and permissions documentation.
Security assessment
Changes are procedural and navigational improvements without addressing security vulnerabilities. Permissions section adjustments maintain existing security controls but do not introduce new security features or mitigations.
