AWS evs documentation change
Summary
Added documentation history entry for March 23, 2026 update to AmazonEVSServiceRolePolicy allowing retrieval of vCenter credentials from Secrets Manager and decryption with customer-managed KMS keys
Security assessment
This documents a policy update that enables Amazon EVS to access secrets and KMS keys, which is security-related functionality. However, there is no evidence this addresses a specific security vulnerability - it appears to be a feature enhancement to support new integration capabilities with Secrets Manager and KMS.
