Amazon Route 53 Adds AWS PrivateLink for API Access

🔒 Amazon Route 53 now supports AWS PrivateLink for the route53.amazonaws.com API, enabling private, regional connectivity from VPCs to the Route 53 API without traversing the public internet. This allows workloads to manage hosted zones, records, and health checks over the AWS backbone and simplifies networking by removing the need for complex private connectivity. Support is global except in AWS GovCloud and China, and cross-region interface VPC endpoints enable native multi-region access.

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.

The capability is available in all AWS Regions, including AWS GovCloud (US). See the Route 53 documentation for setup and pricing details.
