Advantages of an Intranet
There are three main advantages to setting up an Intranet:
1. Speed: Due to the fact that the information is based from a local server the download time is much quicker then the average Internet download time. This means that large files can be linked like PowerPoint presentations and Word documents without the need to compress memory size or convert to the HTML.
2. Security: The information on the Intranet is protected form outside interference.Internet uses cannot access the Intranet due to a protection system called a firewall. A firewall is a separate computer that verifies the log in name and password of those trying to access the network through the Internet connection. (Heyden,1998, p.231)
3. Control: Only those granted access by the IT network administrator can read, add and subtract data on the Intranet pages.
