DMZ is also between North and South Korea.
They also stand for the same thing (demilitarized zone) oddly enough.
Well I think that is where the term comes from.
Not oddly enough. Exactly as expected. DMZ in networking forwards all ports to a specific IP address behind the firewall. That address is demilitarized. It has no firewall defending it.
I've seen it backronymed into "data management zone" in a few places, but it will always be "demilitarized zone" to me.
