1. DMZ (Demilitarized zone)

Explanation:

In computer networking, a Demilitarized Zone is a physical or logical network designed to give an extra layer of security on the organization's private network. The DMZ acts as an interface between an untrusted network such as the internet and the organization's internal network. When a server is set up in a demilitarized zone, users can reach it via its public IP address. In case there is an attack on the server, the private network is still protected.
