AWS ec2 documentation change

Service: ec2 · 2026-04-19 · Documentation low

File: ec2/latest/devguide/example_ec2_CreateSnapshot_section.md

Summary

Added a new 'Action examples' section with a link to an example about EBS encryption, snapshots, and volume initialization.

Security assessment

The change adds a contextual example link. While the linked example mentions EBS encryption (a security feature), the change itself does not add or modify security documentation. It merely points to existing content.
