Intranet
An intranet is a private computer network to use Internet protocols, network connectivity to firmly share part of an organization's information or operations with its employees. Sometimes the word refers only to the mainly visible service, the internal website. The same concepts and technologies of the Internet such as clients and servers running on the Internet protocol suite are used to build an intranet. HTTP and additional Internet protocols are commonly used as well, such as FTP.There is often an effort to use Internet technologies to provide new interfaces with corporate 'legacy' data and information systems.
