An extranet is a network based on web technologies that allows selected outsiders,
such as business partners and customers, to access authorized resources of a company’s
intranet. Companies can move all or most of their business activities to an
extranet site for corporate customers. Many people use extranets every day without
realizing it – to track shipped goods, order products from their suppliers or access
customer assistance from other companies. If you log on to the FedEx site (www.
fedex.com) to check the status of a package, for example, you are using an extranet.
