Summary

Fixed typo in IAM policy action from 'network-secusrity-director:*' to 'network-security-director:*'

Corrects a critical typo in IAM policy action name that could lead to misconfigured permissions. The original typo would have resulted in ineffective policies, potentially creating security risks through improper access control.
