amazonaws.com sub-domain delegation and resolution

0

A customer is currently in the process of approving R53 Resolver for use in their organization. Their current design is to resolve all *amazonaws.com sub-domains on AWS using a R53 Resolver system rule shared with spoke VPCs. Everything else is forwarded to on-premises resolvers via a dot rule.

They have a concern around data exfiltration using encoded DNS queries to "malicious" AWS sub-domains. I am confident this is not a concern for the following reasons but need some confirmation that I can make this statement to the customer:

  1. *amazonaws.com sub-domains are never delegated to a non-AWS entity/3rd party.
  2. *amazonaws.com sub-domains are only authoritatively resolved on Amazon owned Name Servers.

Are both of these statements correct?

Thank you.

Former Route 53 DNS here.

Your assumptions are correct. Those are not allowed by policy but sometimes a dangling CNAME or delegation can happen albeit rarely.
