AWS redshift documentation change
Summary
Removed documentation about requiring signed API requests with IAM or temporary security credentials
Security assessment
The removed content described standard AWS authentication mechanisms (access keys and STS). While authentication is security-related, there is no evidence this change addresses a specific vulnerability. This appears to be documentation cleanup rather than a security fix.
