AWS IAM documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to replace 'AWS CloudFormation' with 'CloudFormation' throughout the document for branding consistency
Security assessment
The changes are purely branding/naming convention updates (removing 'AWS' from CloudFormation references). No security-related content was added, modified, or removed. The tutorial's security implications remain unchanged as it continues to document SAML federation setup through infrastructure-as-code templates.
