AWS datatransferterminal documentation change
Summary
Restructured account setup steps, removed section headers, renumbered procedural steps, and updated formatting/punctuation
Security assessment
Changes focus on organizational/formatting improvements rather than introducing new security content. While the document discusses security best practices (root user protection, MFA, IAM), these were already present in previous version. No evidence of addressing a specific vulnerability.
