Briefing

Contoso’s authorization lists every subdomain under contoso-shop.example. The rules of engagement add one condition: services hosted by a third party may only be tested under that provider’s own published policy.

dig shows whether a name is a CNAME to someone else’s platform. The client owns the DNS record, not the servers behind it.
