Summary

Updated product name references from 'AppStream 2.0' to 'WorkSpaces Applications' throughout the documentation, including console names, service references, and documentation links.

The changes are purely branding updates without modifying security-related content. While IAM roles and security groups are mentioned, these are existing security concepts being carried over with renamed service references. No new security guidance or vulnerability fixes were introduced.
