  • Supports three protocol modes: Do53 (default), DoH, and DoH-FIPS
  • Can encrypt DNS queries between on-premises networks and AWS, and between VPC clients and on-premises resolvers
  • Helps meet compliance requirements like US Federal Agency zero trust cybersecurity principles
  • Supports configuration for both inbound and outbound resolver endpoints
