Virtual Server – DMZ Host
In computer networks, a DMZ (demilitarized zone) is a computer host or small
network inserted as a "neutral zone" between a company's private network and the
outside public network. It prevents outside users from getting direct access to a
server that has company data. A DMZ is an optional and more secure approach to a
firewall and effectively acts as a proxy server as well.
