AWS eks medium security documentation change

Service: eks · 2026-04-19 · Security-related medium

File: eks/latest/userguide/retreive-iam-info.md

Summary

Updated example output to show the new AmazonEBSCSIDriverPolicyV2 policy ARN instead of the older AmazonEBSCSIDriverPolicy.

Security assessment

This change updates example output to reference the more restrictive AmazonEBSCSIDriverPolicyV2 policy, consistent with other documentation updates. This promotes improved security practices by encouraging use of tag-based access control for EBS resources. The change is part of a broader security enhancement initiative for EBS CSI driver permissions.
