File: IAM/latest/UserGuide/access_policies_managed-deprecated.md

Summary

Corrected a broken URL link by removing an extra slash in the reference to deprecated AWS managed policies.

Security assessment

The change fixes a URL formatting error without altering security content or addressing vulnerabilities.

Evidence

+Therefore, when such a change is required, AWS creates a completely new policy with the required changes and makes it available to customers. The old policy is then marked _deprecated_.
