AWS bedrock documentation change
Summary
Removed manual model access request steps and added note about default model access enabled after June 15, 2025. Updated section headers from 'Getting started' to 'Get started'.
Security assessment
The change simplifies access controls by enabling model access by default, which impacts security posture but does not address a specific vulnerability. The added note explains new access requirements for Anthropic models, providing security-related documentation about access management.
