AWS transfer documentation change

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

File: transfer/latest/userguide/custom-lambda-idp.md

Summary

Updated references from 'AWS CloudFormation' to 'CloudFormation' throughout the documentation for consistency

Security assessment

The changes are purely branding/terminology updates (removing redundant 'AWS' from CloudFormation references). No security vulnerabilities, mitigations, or security features were added/modified. The password example 'MySuperSecretPassword' remains unchanged but was not part of the actual diff modifications.
