AWS health documentation change
Summary
Updated AWS Health notification documentation to reflect completed migration to AWS managed notifications, clarified trusted access requirements, and added details about notification categories and limitations.
Security assessment
The changes primarily update migration timelines to past tense and clarify trusted access configurations. While security-related terminology appears (e.g., 'guardrails against overextended permissions'), there's no evidence of patching vulnerabilities or addressing security incidents. The added notification categories include 'Security' as a persona type, but this describes normal service functionality rather than documenting new security features or vulnerabilities.
