AWS IAM documentation change

Service: IAM · 2026-04-19 · Documentation low

File: IAM/latest/UserGuide/service_code_examples.md

Summary

Added numerous new code example links for IAM and STS across various AWS services

Security assessment

Added multiple new code examples including security-relevant topics like 'Moving hardcoded secrets to Secrets Manager', 'Getting started with WAF', 'Getting Started with IoT Device Defender', and 'Setting up Systems Manager'. While these add documentation about security features and best practices, there's no evidence they address specific security vulnerabilities.
