government intranet / government network

According to the reference, the Bayerisches Behördennetz provides an infrastructure for data interchange between the various government departments. I'd call that a government intranet (or simply a goverment data network, depending on context).

civil service intranet

I admit, I have never heard of this. However, there are a lot of agencies here in the USA who have their own intranets that you may access from your office computer, or your computer outside if you have the right magic talisman with you, but the ordinary Joe cannot access.

The fact that they used "Behörden.." might just be the way they differentiate it from a net accessible ONLY to their own employees.

My thoughts.
