AWS securityhub documentation change

Service: securityhub · 2025-06-19 · Documentation low

File: securityhub/latest/userguide/creating-resources-with-cloudformation.md

Summary

Updated documentation to reflect Security Hub CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) integration with CloudFormation. Changed references from generic 'Security Hub' to 'Security Hub CSPM' throughout, updated section headers, and modified resource descriptions.

Security assessment

The changes focus on rebranding standard CloudFormation integration documentation to emphasize CSPM (a security posture management feature). While CSPM is a security-related capability, there's no evidence this change addresses a specific vulnerability or security incident. The modifications appear to be documentation refinement rather than response to a security issue.
