AWS whitepapers documentation change

Service: whitepapers · 2026-06-19 · Documentation low

File: whitepapers/latest/aws-security-incident-response-guide/develop-forensics-capabilities.md

Summary

Removed all content about forensic investigation preparation including NIST reference and operational guidance

Security assessment

The change eliminates proactive forensic capability documentation without demonstrating connection to a specific security incident. Forensic guidance supports security but removal doesn't imply vulnerability resolution.

-# Develop forensics capabilities
