AWS controltower documentation change

Service: controltower · 2025-11-19 · Documentation low

File: controltower/latest/controlreference/dynamodb-rules.md

Summary

Updated references from 'AWS CloudFormation' to 'CloudFormation' in implementation details and rule specifications

Security assessment

The changes are purely branding/terminology updates (removing redundant 'AWS' from CloudFormation references). No security-related content was added, modified, or removed. The security controls (PITR enablement and KMS encryption checks) remain unchanged in their requirements and implementation logic.
