AWS Route53 documentation change

Service: Route53 · 2025-07-04 · Documentation medium

File: Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/hosted-zone-private-considerations.md

Summary

Updated documentation to state that NS records can now be created in private hosted zones for subdomain delegation, with a link to a tutorial

Security assessment

The change documents a new feature (subdomain delegation via NS records in private zones) but does not address a specific security vulnerability or explicitly describe security features. The update is functional rather than security-focused.
