AWS appstream2 documentation change

Service: appstream2 · 2025-11-07 · Documentation low

File: appstream2/latest/developerguide/protecting-data-in-transit-FIPS-endpoints.md

Summary

Updated service name references from 'AppStream 2.0' to 'WorkSpaces Applications' throughout the document

Security assessment

The changes are administrative updates to reflect a service name change (AppStream 2.0 → WorkSpaces Applications). No security-related content was added or modified beyond rebranding existing FIPS endpoint documentation. The core security information about TLS 1.2 and FIPS 140-2 compliance remains unchanged.
