AWS translate documentation change
Summary
Updated URLs by adding double slashes and added new section recommending temporary credentials for IAM users with programmatic access
Security assessment
The change promotes security best practices by adding explicit documentation recommending temporary credentials over long-term credentials for programmatic access. This reduces risks associated with compromised long-term credentials. However, there's no evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability.
