AWS imagebuilder: Simplify CIS hardening component subscription guidance

Service: imagebuilder · 2026-10-15 · Documentation low

File: imagebuilder/latest/userguide/use-marketplace-components.md

Summary

Rewrites the CIS component note to direct users to subscribe via AWS Marketplace and removes the note about selecting 'Third party managed' ownership.

Security assessment

The change only restructures navigation instructions for finding/subscribing to CIS hardening components; it references security tooling but documents no new security feature or vulnerability.

Evidence

+To use a Center for Internet Security (CIS) hardening component, subscribe to it as described in Subscribe to AWS Marketplace components. For more information about the component, see [CIS hardening components](./toe-cis.html).
