Internet, Intranet and

Extranet

Presented By:
Jehra Mae M.

What is Internet?

• is a Global network of computers which may


be server or client that exchanges
information.
• It can be defined as a "network of
networks" which can be linked through
copper wires, wireless connections, and
other technologies.
• This is the world-wide network of
computers accessible to anyone who knows
their Internet Protocol (IP) address.
What is Intranet?

• The term Intranet is derived from two


words: ‘Intra’ which means within and
‘net’ which means group of interconnected
computers.
• is a private computer network that uses
Internet protocols and network connectivity
to securely share any part of an
organization's information or operational
systems with its employees.
• In short, an intranet is private network,
How it is different from Internet?

• The technologies used in Intranet and Internet


may be same but the main difference between
them is that the information shared in intranet
can be access only by authorized persons
especially members or employees of the
organization or company where as in internet
the information is shared world wide with
any public user to explain in simple terms,
intranet is private, within the organization while
internet is public available for global access
Benefits of intranets

• Workforce productivity:
Intranets can help users to locate and view
information faster and use app. relevant to their roles
and responsibilities. With the help of a web browser
interface, users can access data held in any database
the organization wants to make available, anytime
and - subject to security provisions – from anywhere
within the company workstations, increasing
employees' ability to perform their jobs faster, more
accurately, and with confidence that they have the
right information. It also helps to improve the
services provided to the users.
• Time:
• Communication:
Intranets can serve as powerful tools for
communication within an organization, vertically and
horizontally. From a communications standpoint,
intranets are useful to communicate strategic initiatives
that have a global reach throughout the organization.
The type of information that can easily be conveyed is
the purpose of the initiative and what the initiative is
aiming to achieve, who is driving the initiative, results
achieved to date, and who to speak to for more
information. By providing this information on the
intranet, staff has the opportunity to keep up-to-date
with the strategic focus of the organization.
• Cost-effective:
Most organizations have already established TCP/IP
networks, and the incremental infrastructure cost of
• Low maintenance
With information residing in only one
place - the Web server - it is relatively easy
and affordable to add new information or
to update existing information and make it
instantly available.
What is Extranet?

• is an intranet for outside authorized users


using same internet technologies. The
outside users are trusted partners of the
organization who have access to
information of their interest & concern.
• extends the intranet concept to provide a
network that connects a company’s
network to the networks of its business
partners, selected customers, or suppliers.
How it is different from Intranets?

• Intranets differ from extranet in that the


former are generally restricted to
employees of the organization while
extranets may also be accessed by
customers, suppliers, or other approved
parties. Extranets extend a private
network onto the Internet with special
provisions for access, authorization and
authentication.
Types of Extranet
• Public Network Extranet
exists when an organization allows the public to access
its intranet from any public network. Security is an issue in
this configuration, because a public network does not
provide any security protection.
• Private Network Extranet
Is a private, leased-line connection bet. Two companies
that physically connects their intranets to one another. The
single advantage of this is Security. The single largest
drawback is Cost.
• Virtual Private Network (VPN)
is a network that uses public networks and their
protocols to send sensitive data to partners, customers,
Virtual Private Network (VPN)

• a network that is constructed by using


public wires to connect nodes.
-For example, there are a number of
systems that enable you to create
networks using the Internet as the
medium for transporting data. These
systems use encryption and other security
mechanisms to ensure that only
authorized users can access the network
