Method for establishing encrypted channel

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having software instructions for accessing a secure computer network address stored thereon that when executed cause a system to:

• receive a secure domain name;
• send a query message to a secure domain name service, the query message requesting from the secure domain name service a secure computer network address corresponding to the secure domain name;
• receive, in response to the query message, the secure computer network address corresponding to the secure domain name and resources provided by the secure domain name service for secure communication;
• establish an encrypted channel based on the resources provided by the secure domain name service;
• send an access request message to the secure computer network address using the encrypted channel;
• and
• communicate at least one of video data or audio data via the encrypted channel;
• wherein the secure domain name service receives and evaluates the query to determine whether the target computer is configured for communicating over the encrypted channel, and further resolves the query into the secure computer network address.
