A demilitarized zone (DMZ) is a host or small network that acts
as neutral ground between the inside and outside network. It
contains information that is useful to users of both the inside
and outside network. For example, a company may wish to
provide software patches to customers via an FTP server.
However, it does not want FTP access to any hosts other than
the FTP server. This is achieved by creating a DMZ network
which is less restrictive than the internal network.Users attached
to the outside network can access the DMZ, but they cannot
access any other company data.
