  4. MaaS
Explanation
Answer: A - NaaS is the method of leasing extra infrastructure to other companies for a profit.

Key Takeaway: If an organization obtains aspects of networks such as the infrastructure, platforms, or services and is not using them, they have the opportunity to lease them out to outside sources. This process is called NaaS or Networking as a Service. NaaS can be broken up into specific categories depending on what resources they provide. IaaS is so named for providing infrastructure services, such as storage systems. PaaS is Platform as a Service which provides resources such as management of tools and other infrastructure aspects.
