Sharing information within a company (intranets) and with your customers / suppliers and business partners (extranets) can be a very valuable resource for your business.

Fundamentally, an extranet is a private network on a website that shares information available only to visitors with a pre-registered log in and password. Tell use an extranet area to enable our clients to view work in progress – design concepts, amendments etc.  Another example is the systems used by schools and colleges wishing to share information between students, teachers and parents using specified permission levels determined by a users log in.  

Intranets, however, work on the same principal but are not accessible externally, i.e. they allow sharing of information within a closed network.

Security and privacy are required to ensure both extranets and intranets can be safely used. Our clients are able to rely on high levels of security to keep their information secure and confidential.

We are able to offer various levels of security for data including full encryption and digital certification for certain systems. We liaise with a number of online credit card processing companies on the web and our servers are well protected behind some of the best firewalls available today.

We are also able to provide advice on other ways of accessing private information via the internet including the use of virtual private networks (VPNs) that tunnel through the public network.
