File: systems-manager-automation-runbooks/latest/userguide/automation-aws-runcfnlint.md

Summary

Removed 'AWS' prefix from 'AWS CloudFormation' references in documentation text

Security assessment

The changes are purely cosmetic branding updates (removing redundant 'AWS' from CloudFormation references) rather than addressing security vulnerabilities or documenting security features. The linter version remains unchanged and no security-related functionality was modified.

-This runbook uses an [AWS CloudFormation Linter](https://github.com/aws-cloudformation/cfn-python-lint) ( `cfn-python-lint` ) to validate YAML and JSON templates against the AWS CloudFormation resource specification. The `AWS-RunCfnLint` runbook performs additional checks, such as ensuring that valid values have been entered for resource properties. If validation is not successful, the `RunCfnLintAgainstTemplate` step fails and the linter tool's output is provided in an error message. This runbook is using cfn-lint v0.24.4.
