Sep 1, 2025September 2025: Security hardening of the P4 Code Review integration in aws-games/cloud-game-development-toolkit. Implemented HTTPS enforcement for SWARM_HOST when using fully_qualified_domain_name to ensure secure communication. Commit 5ecae1e41ae9698990bc7b463ae9bddf01b828b6 captured the fix, reinforcing secure-by-default URL handling. This work improves reliability, reduces exposure to insecure URLs, and aligns with organizational security standards across the toolkit.
