The term Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) refers to a category of IT solution that offers virtual compute services and infrastructure applications from the cloud. IaaS solutions enable IT organizations to shift various aspects or the entirety of their on-prem or collocated data center to the cloud, thus eliminating the need to purchase hardware and manage ongoing infrastructure operations themselves.

With IaaS, IT admins simply purchase the compute, storage, and infrastructure application resources needed to support their specific environment, and the rest operates virtually. However, like many cloud computing services, IaaS can present security risks if not properly managed.
