Summary
Added deprecation notice for AWS Snowball Edge availability to new customers after November 2025, with alternative service recommendations
Security assessment
The update focuses on product lifecycle changes without security context. The mention of 'secure physical transfers' refers to an alternative service's existing capabilities, not a security fix or new security guidance.
