  The AWS SDK has been migrated from V1 to V2, providing improved performance, non-blocking I/O, and better support for modern AWS services including KMS access via AWS profiles.

• XSRF Response Headers
  XSRF tokens are now included in response headers to be handled by the client side, improving cross-site request forgery protection. 

• Applicants Space WAR
  The Applicants space has been split out into its own WAR file, improving modularity and deployment flexibility.
