AWS prescriptive-guidance documentation change
Summary
Added 'CSPM' to the list of services implementing detective guardrails in the guardrail definition
Security assessment
The change adds AWS Security Hub CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) to the list of detective guardrail implementations. While CSPM is a security feature that helps identify misconfigurations, this is a documentation enhancement rather than addressing a specific security vulnerability. It improves clarity about security tools but doesn't indicate a resolved security issue.
