AWS AWSCloudFormation documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation branding from 'AWS CloudFormation' to 'CloudFormation' and clarified default behavior for alias creation and single sign-on settings
Security assessment
Changes are branding updates and clarification of default behaviors. While single sign-on (SSO) is a security feature, the change only modifies documentation about default configuration (CFN disabling SSO by default) rather than introducing new security documentation or addressing a vulnerability.
