Summary

Updated the list of unsupported AWS regions by adding 'Asia Pacific (New Zealand)' to the exception list for the Config rule checking Spot Fleet encryption at rest.

Security assessment

The change is a routine update to the region availability list for a security control (encryption at rest). There is no evidence of a security vulnerability being addressed; it merely reflects service availability changes.
