An intranet within a company allows employees to securely access internal systems like email and databases from within the organization. It uses a firewall to separate the internal network from the public internet. Key components include an internal email system similar to regular email but keeps traffic internal, as well as web-accessible databases and search tools for collaboration. An intranet also enables videoconferencing between different office locations and facilitates work with external partners like subcontractors or customers.
