Internet, Intranet and

Extranet
 The Internet is a global wide area network that connects
computer systems across the world. It includes several high-
bandwidth data lines that comprise the Internet "backbone."
Internet These lines are connected to major Internet hubs that
distribute data to other locations, such as web servers and
ISPs.
 An intranet is a private network that can only be accessed by
authorized users. The prefix "intra" means "internal" and
therefore implies an intranet is designed for internal
communications. "Inter" (as in Internet) means "between" or
Intranet "among." Since there is only one Internet, the word
"Internet" is capitalized. Because many intranets exist
around the world, the word "intranet" is lowercase.
COMPANY INTRANET INTERNET
 An extranet actually combines both the Internet and an
intranet. It extends an intranet, or internal network, to other
Extranet users over the Internet. Most extranets can be accessed via a
Web interface using a Web browser.
 Everyone has access to the Internet.

 People who work for a company will have access to the


Internet,
company intranet.
Intranet and
Extranet  An extranet is created by a company to offer customers,
suppliers and vendors specific data without allowing them
access to other proprietary or sensitive company data.
