A Confluence site is an internal
network made up of multiple
interconnected spaces.
The site is password-protected
and not publicly accessible.
A space has a specific focus and
audience, containing many
pages

would be a space restricted to
board members and staff
members that support board
activities

Editor's Notes Lucinda and Catherine each say a few words A number of options for cloud-based intranets exist, with varying features, pricing, and support. This webinar will focus on the web-based Confluence software created by Atlassian, as it addresses the key functions for a successful intranet. An organization’s Confluence site could contain a board portal, a staff-wide intranet, and an HR recruitment space.
Because a board portal and a staff intranet have different audiences and focuses, they would be two separate spaces.
