[All AWS Certified Security - Specialty Questions]

A company is using Amazon Route 53 Resolver for its hybrid DNS infrastructure. The company has set up Route 53 Resolver forwarding rules for authoritative domains that are hosted on on-premises DNS servers.

A new security mandate requires the company to implement a solution to log and query DNS traffic that goes to the on-premises DNS servers. The logs must show details of the source IP address of the instance from which the query originated. The logs also must show the DNS name that was requested in Route 53 Resolver.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A. Use VPC Traffic Mirroring. Configure all relevant elastic network interfaces as the traffic source, include amazon-dns in the mirror filter, and set Amazon CloudWatch Logs as the mirror target. Use CloudWatch Insights on the mirror session logs to run queries on the source IP address and DNS name.
  • B. Configure VPC flow logs on all relevant VPCs. Send the logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use Amazon Athena to run SQL queries on the source IP address and DNS name.
  • C. Configure Route 53 Resolver query logging on all relevant VPCs. Send the logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Use CloudWatch Insights to run queries on the source IP address and DNS name.
  • D. Modify the Route 53 Resolver rules on the authoritative domains that forward to the on-premises DNS servers. Send the logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use Amazon Athena to run SQL queries on the source IP address and DNS name.

When you create or edit an outbound endpoint, you specify the following values: Endpoint name VPC in the region-name Region Security group IP addresses Tags Just by modifying the forwarding rule we can not forward the log to S3. Further, the option D does not talk about logging the DNS query. So, A is the reasonable Answer

Selected Answer: C
The correct answer is to configure Amazon Route 53 Resolver query logging for all the VPCs. The query logs can be stored in Amazon CloudWatch Logs and can be analyzed with CloudWatch Logs Insights. The other answer options will fail to capture the needed DNS queries.
