It is separate from the internet and restricts the use of internet because of the issue of security. But the extranet is the restricted networks that are associated with two or more intranets. The internet helps the business in creating a network, communication, marketing and sales. The SAH use these networks to communicate with the stakeholders and provide them expected information.
