AWS quick documentation change
Summary
Restructured setup documentation to clarify two distinct sign-up paths: quick.aws.com (Free/Plus accounts) and AWS Console (organizational accounts). Updated links and added notes about which configuration tasks apply to each account type.
Security assessment
The changes are organizational and clarify different sign-up methods and account types. There is no mention of vulnerabilities, security incidents, or patches. The mention of IAM Identity Center for AWS Console accounts is a standard feature description, not a new security addition or a response to a security issue.
