Internet vs. Intranet

An intranet is a computer network used to share information, operational systems, or computing services within an 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, but may be a more extensive part of the organization's information technology infrastructure, and may be composed of multiple local area networks.

Intranet

The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that serves billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies.


Internet
Some intranet systems use internet to comunicate or to share information with the organization.
