Amazon CloudFront Adds CBOR Web Tokens and CAT Support

🔐 Amazon CloudFront now supports CWT (CBOR Web Tokens) and CAT (Common Access Tokens), providing a compact, binary alternative to JWTs using CBOR and protected with COSE. Developers can validate, generate, and refresh tokens directly in CloudFront Functions with sub-millisecond execution and seamless integration with the CloudFront Functions KeyValueStore for secure key management. CAT extends CWT with fine-grained access controls such as URL patterns, IP restrictions, and HTTP method limits, enabling edge-enforced authorization without additional charge.
