Full text of a recently released GAO (General Accounting Office) report, "Information Security: Computer Attacks at Department of Defense Pose Increasing Risks," (GAO/AIMD-96-84) is available from the Government Printing Office Web site. Among GAO's findings are: "only about 1 in 500 attacks is detected and reported, but the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) estimates that DOD is attacked about 250,000 times per year; attackers have stolen, modified, and destroyed data and software, disabled protection systems to allow future unauthorized access, and shut down entire systems and networks to preclude authorized use; security breaches pose a serious risk to national security because terrorists or U.S. adversaries could disrupt the national information infrastructure; and, security breaches cost DOD hundreds of millions of dollars annually."
