An intranet is a private network In Internet Protocol terminology, a private network is typically a network that uses private IP address space, following the standards set by RFC 1918 and RFC 4193. These addresses are common in home and office local area networks , as globally routable addresses are scarce, expensive to obtain, or their use is not necessary. Private IP address that uses Internet protocols In computing, a protocol is a set of rules which is used by computers to communicate with each other across a network. A protocol is a convention or standard that controls or enables the connection, communication, and data transfer between computing endpoints. In its simplest form, a protocol can be defined as the rules governing the syntax, to securely share any part of an organization's information or operational systems within that organization. The term is used in contrast to internet - a network between organizations - and instead refers to a network within an organization. Sometimes the term refers only to the organization's internal website A website is a collection of related web pages, images, videos or other digital assets that are addressed with a common domain name or IP address in an Internet Protocol-based network. A web site is hosted on at least one web server, accessible via the Internet or a private local area network, but may be a more extensive part of the organization's information technology infrastructure.
