AWS prescriptive-guidance documentation change

Service: prescriptive-guidance · 2026-07-10 · Documentation low

File: prescriptive-guidance/latest/transitioning-to-multiple-aws-accounts/identity-management.md

Summary

Updated breadcrumb link, simplified title, restructured task list from bullet points to numbered list, and removed standalone 'Manage member accounts' bullet point.

Security assessment

Changes are organizational/formatting (converting task list to numbered items). No security concepts were added or modified. The content still references identity management but doesn't introduce new security documentation.
