Computers In The Law Office

Both law firm intranet and extranet provide venues in which dealings as well as communications may occur between themselves and clients. These systems represent secure networks by which joint collaboration efforts may occur as well. What distinguishes extranet from intranet is that intranet is composed solely within one company or firm. All communications and documents go no further than that prescribed region of individuals. Extranet, however, allows whatever is within the intranet to be transferred to other outside parties via the Internet. Such items that may be secured on a law firm's intranet include: "internal policies and procedure manuals", "company directories", "office locations", as well as "press releases". In order to ensure privacy, it is also important that you maintain passwords for each conveyance as well as access to each system.
