AWS marketplace documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation for multi-currency private offers, adding INR currency support and regional guidance for Indian buyers. Restructured content to clarify fixed exchange rate handling, contract pricing scenarios, and consumption-based billing details.
Security assessment
The changes focus on expanding currency support (INR), regional buyer guidance, and billing process clarifications. No security vulnerabilities, access controls, or authentication mechanisms are mentioned. Changes relate to financial operations and regional compliance rather than security protections.
