AWS ebs: Fix SCP documentation link

Service: ebs · 2026-08-19 · Documentation low

File: ebs/latest/userguide/ebs-encryption-requirements.md

Summary

Corrected hyperlink to Organizations service control policies documentation.

Security assessment

Fixes broken URL without modifying security guidance about encryption policies.

Evidence

+Identity-only roles are subject to [service control policies](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/organizations/latest/userguide/orgs_manage_policies_scps.html) (SCPs), and [KMS key policies](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/key-policies.html). If an SCP or KMS key denies the identity-only role access to a KMS key, you may fail to launch EC2 instances with encrypted volumes, or using encrypted AMIs or snapshots.
