Summary

Added PowerShell V5 examples demonstrating Lambda function creation with IAM roles and environment variables

Security assessment

Documents security-relevant features (IAM role assignment, environment variables) but doesn't address vulnerabilities. Shows secure configuration practices rather than fixing issues.

+**Example 1: This example creates a new C# (dotnetcore1.0 runtime) function named MyFunction in AWS Lambda, providing the compiled binaries for the function from a zip file on the local file system (relative or absolute paths may be used). C# Lambda functions specify the handler for the function using the designation AssemblyName::Namespace.ClassName::MethodName. You should replace the assembly name (without .dll suffix), namespace, class name and method name parts of the handler spec appropriately. The new function will have environment variables 'envvar1' and 'envvar2' set up from the provided values.**
