Summary

Removed 'Security enhancements' sections that documented Dynamic data masking policy support for Babelfish cross-database queries in two different release versions

Security assessment

The changes remove previously documented security feature descriptions about Dynamic data masking. This appears to be documentation cleanup or reorganization rather than addressing a security issue. The removal could indicate feature deprecation, documentation consolidation, or correction of inaccurate information, but there's no evidence of a security vulnerability being addressed.
