AWS amazonq medium security documentation change

Service: amazonq · 2025-07-25 · Security-related medium

File: amazonq/latest/qdeveloper-ug/q-admin-prompt-logging.md

Summary

Updated link title for the Amazon Q Developer profile documentation and specified 'us-east-1' region in the S3 bucket policy example.

Security assessment

The change replaces a placeholder 'region' with 'us-east-1' in the 'aws:SourceArn' policy example. This enforces region-specific access control, reducing the risk of overly permissive policies that could allow unintended cross-region access. Correcting the example prevents potential misconfigurations, improving security posture.
