AWS medialive documentation change

Service: medialive · 2025-10-25 · Documentation low

File: medialive/latest/ug/monitor-activity-types.md

Summary

Expanded monitoring capabilities table to include AWS SDK/API column, added MediaLive Anywhere cluster alerts, and consolidated channel/multiplex documentation

Security assessment

While adding API/SDK monitoring options improves operational visibility, there is no explicit reference to security controls, vulnerabilities, or protective measures. The cluster state alerts relate to system health rather than security threats.
