The present invention discloses methods, media, and perimeter gateways for encrypted-traffic URL filtering using address-mapping interception, methods including the steps of: providing a client system having a client application for accessing websites from web servers; upon the client application attempting to access an encrypted website, performing a name-to-address query to resolve a name of the encrypted website; intercepting address-mapping responses; creating a mapping between the name and at least one network address of the encrypted website; intercepting incoming encrypted traffic; extracting a server's network address from the incoming encrypted traffic; establishing a resolved name being accessed using the mapping; and filtering the resolved name. Preferably, the step of filtering includes redirecting the encrypted traffic. Preferably, the method further includes the step of: blocking all encrypted traffic for unresolved names.
