AWS amazonglacier documentation change

Service: amazonglacier · 2025-10-01 · Documentation low

File: amazonglacier/latest/dev/api-Encryption.md

Summary

Updated service name references from 'S3 Glacier' to 'Glacier', adjusted storage class naming consistency, and modified documentation links to reflect terminology changes

Security assessment

Changes are branding/naming convention updates without altering encryption implementation details. The documentation continues to reference the same encryption features ('advanced optional encryption features') without adding new security guidance or addressing vulnerabilities.
