GOAL:
What is a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
FIX:
Demilitarized zone (DMZ) is a network segment or segments located between protected and unprotected networks.
The DMZ may not be connected to the protected network in any way.
The DMZ may also include perimeter defense systems.
For example, The DMZ can be made to look like it is part of the protected network, luring hackers into traps that log their activities and attempt to track the source of the activity.
