Summary
Updated terminology from 'ELB' to 'Elastic Load Balancing' in the TLS security policy section
Security assessment
The change is purely terminological (branding update) and does not alter any security-related technical content about TLS protocols, ciphers, or negotiation processes. No evidence of vulnerability fixes or security enhancements.
