AWS connect documentation change

Service: connect · 2025-11-16 · Documentation medium

File: connect/latest/adminguide/agent-performance-evaluation-dashboard.md

Summary

Restructured security permissions section, removed granular agent access details, and added guidance for hierarchy-based access control to limit manager access within their agent hierarchy.

Security assessment

The change introduces hierarchy-based access control documentation (a security feature) but removes specific permission descriptions. While access control improvements are security-adjacent, there's no evidence this addresses an active vulnerability. The addition of 'Apply hierarchy-based access control' demonstrates enhanced security documentation for data isolation.
