When is the protected access used in C++? Who can access protected members of class?

 The direct classes that have been derived privately also having the inclusion of the
private access to that of the protected members.
Protected members of the class are very much considered to be similar to that of the
private members as a reason of the fact that they cannot be accessed from the outside of the
