AWS has launched a preview integration of Palo Alto Networks (PANW) Advanced DNS Security with Amazon Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall. Security administrators can now apply PANW threat protections — including Command and Control, Malware, Phishing, Newly Registered Domains, DNS tunneling detection, fast-flux protection, DNS rebinding, and DGA detection — directly within Route 53 DNS Firewall rules, without deploying separate firewalls or modifying VPC configurations. The integration supports multi-account management via AWS RAM, Route 53 Profiles, and AWS Firewall Manager, with centralized visibility through AWS Security Hub, Amazon S3, Data Firehose, and CloudWatch Logs. Available in preview across 8 AWS regions, the PANW Marketplace subscription is free during the preview period.
