I always wonder why so much of an organization’s network is connected to the internet. Considering the risk, it seems portions could be intranet only with separate work stations that have outside connection if internet research or communication is needed.

Any systems experts out there that can tell me what is wrong with my thinking on this? Thanks.

Not my line of work, but as noted in #4 my employer maintained a sneaker network. And I doubt that is still a viable approach?

Anything that involved money had ZERO connections, everything stayed in one room.
