Summary

Fixed CLI examples by replacing invalid 'email' enum value with valid notification types ('Case Created', 'Case Closed') and corrected JSON syntax in communicationPreferences arrays.

Security assessment

The correction of invalid enum values prevents potential misconfiguration of incident notifications. Incorrect configuration could lead to missed security alerts, delaying incident response. The specific replacement of security notification types constitutes concrete evidence of addressing a security weakness.
