AWS drs: Updated AWS managed policy for recovery plans
Summary
Added documentation for updating the read-only policy with permissions for recovery plans and executions.
Security assessment
The evidence shows an update to a managed IAM policy, which controls access permissions. Adding new permissions for recovery plans enhances security documentation but does not fix a vulnerability.

+Updated AWS managed policy | Updates the [AWSElasticDisasterRecoveryReadOnlyAccess](./security-iam-awsmanpol-AWSElasticDisasterRecoveryReadOnlyAccess.html) policy with new read-only permissions for recovery plans and recovery plan executions. | August 18, 2026
