Summary

Changed 'Amazon S3 Glacier' to 'Amazon Glacier' in storage tier examples

Security assessment

The change appears to be a branding/naming convention update (removing redundant 'S3' from Glacier references). No security implications or modifications to security-related content. MFA Delete and authentication requirements remain unchanged.

-Data asset versioning can be managed by policies, to automate management at large scale. These policies can be combined with other Amazon S3 capabilities, such as lifecycle management for long-term retention of versions on lower cost storage tiers. Examples of such storage tiers include Amazon S3 Glacier, and Multi-Factor-Authentication (MFA) Delete. These lower cost tiers require a second layer of authentication—typically through an approved external authentication device—to delete data asset versions. Even though S3 provides 99.999999999% data durability within an AWS Region, many enterprise organizations may have compliance and risk models that require them to replicate their data assets to a second geographically distant location and build disaster recovery architectures in a second location.
