AWS controltower documentation change

Service: controltower · 2025-12-10 · Documentation low

File: controltower/latest/userguide/2024-all.md

Summary

Updated references from 'Security Hub Service-managed Standard' to 'Security Hub CSPM Service-managed Standard' and aligned terminology for Security Hub CSPM controls

Security assessment

The changes reflect rebranding/alignment with Security Hub CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) terminology but do not address a specific security vulnerability. CSPM is a security feature, so documentation updates about its integration qualify as security documentation additions.
