Summary

Changed 'AWS CloudFormation' to 'CloudFormation' and 'AWS Direct Connect' to 'Direct Connect' for branding consistency

Security assessment

These are non-technical branding changes (removing redundant 'AWS' prefix). The security-related content about WAF/IDS/IPS and DNS security remains unchanged except for service name formatting.
