Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A demilitarized zone, or DMZ, is a separate network that sits outside of an organization's internal information system and allows access to selected resources from the Internet while still maintaining a level of security through the use of firewalls and other security measures. This allows external users to access certain resources, such as web servers or email, without compromising the security of the organization's internal network.
