2. Firewall
A firewall protects a intranet from snooping eyes
and malisious attacks. The firewall enables corporate
employees to use the Internet and also enables certain
parts of the intranet

3. Corporate intranet
Corporations can enable customers to buy goods
and services. Users can browse through catalogs on
the company's public website, order goods, and then
submit secure payments. The transaction travels
through a firewall in both directions and uses
encryption technology as a security measure.

4. Corporate database
Corporate databases with important information can
be made available over the intranet via webbased
HTML documents and search tools. These databases
will be available only to corporate employees, and like
the rest of the intranet, the firewall protect them.

5. Internal email system
An internal email system works just like Internet
email. It can use normal Internet email clients, but it is
designed to route traffic within an organization, so the
email need not travel outside the intranet. Email from
the intranet that travels to and from the Internet must
go through the firewall.

6. Groupware
An intranet enables people to collaborate on their
work electronically using groupware. Groupware
enables people to have online brainstorming sessions,
schedule group meetings, work on documents and
plans together, create common databases, and perform
other kinds of cooperative work.
