How can I enforce Maven to only use my local repository and single specific repository on intranet and not downloading anything from internet? Even my POMs all has single company's internal repository specified, maven goes to internet repositories taken from libs' POM files to fetch dependencies.

Maven Central, a.k.a. the Central Repository, is the default repository for Maven, SBT, Leiningen, and many other JVM based build tools. It has been around since 2002, and serves many terabytes of assets every year.
A repository in Maven holds build artifacts and dependencies of varying types. There are exactly two types of repositories: local and remote: the local repository is a directory on the computer where Maven runs. It caches remote downloads and contains temporary build artifacts that you have not yet released.
We can use -U/--update-snapshots flag when building a maven project to force maven to download dependencies from the remote repository. Here, -U,--update-snapshots : Forces a check for missing releases and updated snapshots on remote repositories.
In your settings.xml (usually under %user.home%/.m2) you can configure this.
E.g.
<mirrors>
<mirror>
<id>repo.example.com</id>
<mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf>
<name>Internal repo</name>
<url>http://repo.example.com/repo</url>
</mirror>
</mirrors>
The key part there is the <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf> which means that all requests will be directed at this repository.
