AWS AmazonRDS documentation change
Summary
Updated CloudWatch metric statistics recommendations from 'Average' to 'Sum' for multiple RDS Proxy monitoring metrics
Security assessment
The changes modify statistical aggregation recommendations but do not address security vulnerabilities or introduce security features. Metrics like ClientConnectionsNoTLS relate to security monitoring but the statistic change itself doesn't fix vulnerabilities or add protections.
