Route 53 Adds Protection Against Dictionary DGA Attacks

🛡️ Amazon Web Services has added Dictionary-based DGA detection to Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall Advanced, enabling real-time monitoring and blocking of domain queries that use word-based DGA techniques designed to mimic legitimate names. Administrators can create DNS Firewall Advanced rule(s) targeting Dictionary DGA and add them to rule groups to enforce protections on VPCs directly or through AWS Firewall Manager, RAM, CloudFormation, or Route 53 Profiles. The capability is available in all AWS Regions, including AWS GovCloud (US). See the Route 53 documentation for setup and pricing details.
