‎Gulf War illnesses: Improved Monitoring of Clinical Progress and rRexamination of Research Rmphasis Are Needed: Report to the Chairmen and Ranking Minority Members of the Senate Committee on Armed Services and the House Committee on National Security‎

‎Washington D.C.: United States Congress General Accounting Office 1997. Presumed first edition/first printing. Wraps. Very good. Pencil erasure residue on first page. 140 p. 28 cm. Illustrations. Tables. Glossary. Report designated: GAO/NSIAD-97-163. The GAO evaluated the Department of Defense; s and the Department of Veterans Affairs efforts to assess the quality of treatment and diagnostic services provided to Gulf War veterans and their provisions for follow-up of initial examimations and the government's research strategy to study the veterans' illnesses and the methodological problems posed in its studies and the consistency of key official conclusions with available data on the causes of veterans' illnesses. From Wikipedia: "Gulf War syndrome GWS also known as Gulf War illness GWI is a chronic multisymptom disorder affecting returning military veterans and civilian workers of the Persian Gulf War. A wide range of acute and chronic symptoms have been linked to it including fatigue muscle pain cognitive problems rashes and diarrhea. Approximately 250 000 of the 697 000 veterans who served in the 1991 Gulf War are afflicted with enduring chronic multi-symptom illness a condition with serious consequences. From 1995 to 2005 the health of combat veterans worsened in comparison with nondeployed veterans with the onset of more new chronic diseases functional impairment repeated clinic visits and hospitalizations chronic fatigue syndrome-like illness posttraumatic stress disorder and greater persistence of adverse health incidents. According to a report by the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America it showed that veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan may also suffer from the syndrome. Suggested causes have included depleted uranium sarin gas smoke from burning oil wells vaccinations combat stress and psychological factors though only pyridostigmine an antitoxin for nerve agents and organophosphate pesticides have been conclusively linked.According to an April 2010 U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs VA sponsored study conducted by the Institute of Medicine IOM part of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences 250 000 of the 696 842 U.S. servicemen and women in the 1991 Gulf War continue to suffer from chronic multi-symptom illness popularly known as "Gulf War Illness" or "Gulf War Syndrome." The IOM found that the chronic multi-symptom illness continues to affect these veterans nearly 20 years after the war and "the excess of unexplained medical symptoms reported by deployed 1991 Gulf war veterans cannot be reliably ascribed to any known psychiatric disorder." According to the IOM "It is clear that a significant portion of the soldiers deployed to the Gulf War have experienced troubling constellations of symptoms that are difficult to categorize " said committee chair Stephen L. Hauser professor and chair department of neurology University of California San Francisco UCSF. "Unfortunately symptoms that cannot be easily quantified are sometimes incorrectly dismissed as insignificant and receive inadequate attention and funding by the medical and scientific establishment. Veterans who continue to suffer from these symptoms deserve the very best that modern science and medicine can offer to speed the development of effective treatments cures and we hope prevention. Our report suggests a path forward to accomplish this goal and we believe that through a concerted national effort and rigorous scientific input answers can be found." Questions still exist regarding why certain veterans showed and still show medically-unexplained symptoms while others did not why symptoms are diverse in some and specific in others and why combat exposure is not consistently linked to having or not having symptoms. The lack of data on veterans' pre-deployment and immediate post-deployment health status and lack of measurement and monitoring of the various substances to which veterans may have been exposed make it difficult and in many cases impossible to reconstruct what happened to service members during their deployments nearly 20 years after the fact the committee noted.

The name was changed in 2004 to Government Accountability Office by the GAO Human Capital Reform Act. The Melissa virus was a mass-mailing macro virus. It targeted Microsoft Word and Outlook-based systems and created considerable network traffic. Around March 26 1999 the Melissa virus was put into the wild by David L. Smith of Aberdeen Township New Jersey. The virus itself was credited to Kwyjibo who was shown to be the macrovirus writers VicodinES and ALT-F11 by comparing Microsoft Word documents with the same globally unique identifier - this method was also used to trace the virus back to Smith. On December 10 1999 Smith pleaded guilty to releasing the virus and was sentenced to 10 years in prison serving 20 months. He was also fined US $5000. The arrest was the result of a collaborative effort involving amongst others the FBI the New Jersey State Police Monmouth Internet and a Swedish computer scientist. David L. Smith was accused of causing $80 million worth of damages by disrupting personal computers and computer networks in business and government. United States General Accounting Office paperback‎

The American Presidential directive PDD-63 of May 1998 set up a national program of "Critical Infrastructure Protection".1 In 2014 the NIST Cybersecurity Framework was published after further presidential directives. In Europe the equivalent European Programme for Critical Infrastructure Protection EPCIP refers to the doctrine or specific programs created as a result of the European Commission's directive EU COM2006 786 which designates European critical infrastructure that in case of fault incident or attack could impact both the country where it is hosted and at least one other European Member State.

Case Studies. From Wikipedia: "Risk assessment is the determination of quantitative or qualitative value of risk related to a concrete situation and a recognized threat also called hazard. Quantitative risk assessment requires calculations of two components of risk R: the magnitude of the potential loss L and the probability p that the loss will occur. Acceptable risk is a risk that is understood and tolerated usually because the cost or difficulty of implementing an effective countermeasure for the associated vulnerability exceeds the expectation of loss. In all types of engineering of complex systems sophisticated risk assessments are often made within Safety engineering and Reliability engineering when it concerns threats to life environment or machine functioning. The nuclear aerospace oil rail and military industries have a long history of dealing with risk assessment. Also medical hospital social service and food industries control risks and perform risk assessments on a continual basis. Methods for assessment of risk may differ between industries and whether it pertains to general financial decisions or environmental ecological or public health risk assessment."
