Agile network protocol for secure communications using secure domain names

摘要

A secure domain name service for a computer network is disclosed that includes a portal connected to a computer network, such as the Internet, and a domain name database connected to the computer network through the portal. The portal authenticates a query for a secure computer network address, and the domain name database stores secure computer network addresses for the computer network. Each secure computer network address is based on a non-standard top-level domain name, such as .scom, .sorg, .snet, .snet, .sedu, .smil and .sint.

主权项

1. A service system for accommodating audio video communications over an encrypted communication link between two registered devices, wherein at least one of the registered devices is provided with an application program for performing audio video communications with the other registered device following establishment of the encrypted communication link therebetween, the system comprising:
a memory storing instructions and a plurality of network addresses of devices of registered users; and one or more hardware processors that are configured to execute the instructions to:
(a) connect to a communication network;(b) receive a Domain Name Service (DNS) query, from a first device, to look up a network address associated with a second device;(c) determine, in response to the DNS query, whether the second device accepts an encrypted communication link connection with the first device; and(d) establish an encrypted communication link between the first device and the second device based on a determination that the second device accepts an encrypted communication link connection with the first device.
