AWS amazonglacier documentation change

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

File: amazonglacier/latest/dev/downloading-an-archive-using-cli.md

Summary

Updated terminology from 'S3 Glacier' to 'Glacier' throughout the document, adjusted references to storage classes, and modified links to reflect naming changes. No functional changes to the download process.

Security assessment

The changes are purely branding/terminology updates (removing 'S3' from product names) and do not address security vulnerabilities, encryption practices, access controls, or other security-related configurations. The mention of 'advanced optional encryption features' remains unchanged from previous documentation.
