AWS awssupport medium security documentation change
Summary
Removed root user requirement for changing support plans, updated UI flow for plan comparison/pricing, and revised confirmation steps.
Security assessment
Removing root user access requirement enforces IAM-based permissions, aligning with security best practices to minimize use of root credentials. This reduces risk of accidental/malicious account-wide changes via compromised root credentials.
