Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An extranet is a network that allows an organization to extend a portion of its intranet to external partners such as suppliers, vendors, and customers. It provides controlled access to authorized outsiders to certain internal resources such as databases, applications, and other services. The extranet also enables secure sharing of information and collaboration on projects between the organization and its external partners. DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone and refers to a network segment that is isolated from the internal network and is exposed to the Internet for public-facing services. Intranet is a private network accessible only to organization members, while the Internet refers to the global network of networks connecting billions of devices worldwide.
