Summary

Updated 'What's new' section with new model announcements (Claude Opus 4.7, Claude Mythos Preview) and a feature announcement for cost allocation by IAM principal

Security assessment

The changes are routine feature updates and model announcements. The addition of 'Cost allocation by IAM user and role' is a financial governance feature, not a security feature. It helps with attribution of costs but does not introduce or modify security controls, policies, or address vulnerabilities.
