AWS config documentation change

Service: config · 2025-08-16 · Documentation medium

File: config/latest/developerguide/managed-rules-by-aws-config.md

Summary

Added multiple new managed rules to AWS Config documentation (e.g., alb-tagged, appsync-graphql-api-xray-enabled, datasync-location-object-storage-using-https)

Security assessment

Added documentation for new security-related rules like 'datasync-location-object-storage-using-https' (enforces HTTPS) and other resource tagging rules. While some rules enhance security posture, there is no evidence these changes address specific vulnerabilities.
