Summary

Updated JSON policy formatting and fixed KMS resource ARN region to us-east-1

Security assessment

The change standardizes policy syntax and fixes a region in a KMS ARN example. While region specificity is important for resource targeting, there's no evidence this addresses a security vulnerability.
