AWS kinesisvideostreams-webrtc-dg documentation change

Service: kinesisvideostreams-webrtc-dg · 2025-11-13 · Documentation low

File: kinesisvideostreams-webrtc-dg/latest/devguide/kvswebrtc-monitoring-cw.md

Summary

Expanded CloudWatch metrics documentation with latency tracking, role-based metrics, and viewer/recording minute tracking

Security assessment

Enhanced monitoring capabilities improve operational visibility but don't explicitly address security vulnerabilities or document security features. Role-based metrics aid in traffic analysis rather than security controls.
