AWS amazonglacier documentation change
Summary
Updated branding from 'Glacier' to 'Amazon Glacier' throughout document. Added deprecation notice stating Amazon Glacier (original vault-based service) will stop accepting new customers after December 15, 2025, with migration guidance to S3 Glacier storage classes.
Security assessment
Changes focus on service naming consistency and deprecation announcements rather than addressing security vulnerabilities. While the notice mentions data remains 'secure', this is a general assurance rather than documenting new security features or patching vulnerabilities. No evidence of security incident response or vulnerability mitigation.
