AWS Route 53 Global Resolver - Enterprise DNS Security at the Edge

Every DNS query your hybrid environment makes could be exposing sensitive data. AWS Route 53 Global Resolver, announced at re:Invent 2025, combines anycast routing, encrypted DNS protocols (DoH/DoT), and managed threat filtering in a single service.

In this episode, we cover:
- Anycast DNS architecture routing to nearest of 11 AWS regions
- DoH and DoT encrypted DNS protocol support
- AWS RAM authorization for multi-account private hosted zones
- DNS filtering with managed threat lists
- Implementation patterns for hybrid environments and remote workforces
- Query logging for security visibility and threat hunting

Plus news on Claude Code creator workflows, UK encryption backdoors, K8s EU hosting costs, PostgreSQL replacing Redis, and Rust ecosystem security.
