AWS AmazonCloudWatch documentation change

Service: AmazonCloudWatch · 2026-02-13 · Documentation low

File: AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/alarm-suppression.md

Summary

Renamed file and expanded documentation about alarm suppression. Added sections explaining when to use suppression, how suppressor alarms work, and detailed explanations of WaitPeriod/ExtensionPeriod with examples.

Security assessment

The changes add documentation about alarm suppression features that help manage operational noise during maintenance/deployments. While this improves operational security by preventing unnecessary alerts, there's no evidence of addressing a specific vulnerability.
