What is Intranet?
Intranet is the use of internet network structure standards and web technology by businesses to form their own private computer network.
While the web is a technology open to everyone, intranet needs to be inherently private and closed to external users. Companies that set up a secure intranet system restrict the access of individuals outside their organisation from accessing the company’s confidential information with specialized software. The electronic wall called intranet comprises of software and hardware components that lie between the organization’s internal computer network used to communicate internally and the external computer network used to interact with the outside world.
The Internet and its counterpart intranet, which is the internal implementation of the Internet within an organisation, brings many competitive advantages to an enterprise. While the Internet unifies the business with the outside world, intranet unifies it within.
Information and sections that want to be shared with employees can be organised in the form of a web page and put onto the intranet.
It has become increasingly important to introduce your company to your employees with brief and correct information and form a powerful communication network among them. Intranet projects can harbour many features and modules. Here are some of them:
