AWS IAM documentation change

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

File: IAM/latest/UserGuide/service_code_examples_sts.md

Summary

Updated titles for multiple code examples to use more generic service terminology instead of specific product names (e.g., 'Amazon ECS' becomes 'container service', 'Secrets Manager' becomes 'secure secret storage'). Reordered some examples.

Security assessment

Changes are purely cosmetic title updates and reorganization of existing code examples. No security vulnerabilities, patches, or weaknesses are referenced. The 'Moving hardcoded secrets' example still covers the same security best practice with updated terminology, but doesn't add new security documentation.
