AWS AmazonCloudFront documentation change

Service: AmazonCloudFront · 2026-06-16 · Documentation low

File: AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/example_cloudfront_GettingStarted_section.md

Summary

Updated main heading to 'Get started with a basic content distribution network' and changed 'Getting started with WAF' to 'Getting started with web application firewalls'.

Security assessment

Terminology changes (CloudFront→CDN, WAF→web application firewalls) improve clarity but don't modify security guidance or address vulnerabilities.
