AWS emr: Fix KMS key ARN placeholder and remove Sid in EMR encryption policy

Service: emr · 2026-09-30 · Documentation medium

File: emr/latest/EMR-Serverless-UserGuide/disk-encryption-cmk.md · Type: encryption

Summary

Replaces the 'key-arn' placeholder with a concrete KMS key ARN and removes the 'Enable GDK and Decrypt' Sid in the disk encryption IAM policy examples.

Security assessment

Improves the accuracy of KMS-based disk encryption policy examples by using a valid key ARN format; it is documentation of encryption configuration, not a fix for a specific vulnerability.
