Summary

Updated references from 'AWS CloudFormation' to 'CloudFormation' and 'AWS Direct Connect' to 'Direct Connect' for terminology consistency

Security assessment

Changes are purely branding/terminology updates (removing redundant 'AWS' prefixes). No security-related content was added or modified. The edits maintain existing security guidance about VPC configurations without altering security implications.
