AWS Network Firewall extended support for managed rule groups from AWS Marketplace vendors, enhancing capabilities to include up to 10 million domain indicators and 1 million IP addresses. These updates offer broader protection against malicious domains and command-and-control attacks and improve enforcement of sanctions-based compliance.

Partners like Infoblox, Lumen, and ThreatSTOP contributed new or expanded rules targeting critical domains, command infrastructure, and sanctions compliance across multiple regions. These managed rules automate threat intelligence updates, reducing operational overhead for customers securing their cloud environments.
