AWS amazondynamodb medium security documentation change
Summary
Updated installation instructions for NoSQL Workbench, removed macOS security warning bypass steps, added JRE 17 requirement, and reorganized Ubuntu prerequisite details.
Security assessment
Removed instructions for bypassing macOS security warnings (Control+click to open unidentified developer apps), which reduces risk of running untrusted software. The change promotes security best practices by eliminating guidance that could lead to execution of unverified applications.
