The term is strongly related to the term "Consequence" and further work is needed in order to distinguish between the two terms. The term Severity is also used as a synonym.

Definitions
European Definitions
Severity is the impact of the disruption or destruction of a particular infrastructure, with reference to (1) public effect (number of members of the population affected); (2) economic effect (significance of economic loss and/or degradation of products or services); (3) environmental effect; (4) political effects; (5) psychological effects; and (6) public health consequences.[1]
The strong and noticeable effect or influence on something or someone. In the context with CBRN often used to describe the effect of a CBRN release [2].
Other International Definitions
National Definitions
Australia
Impact is a sudden occurrence without prior warning. [3]
France
(Unofficial translation) Predictable effects of a successful attack on a target. They are estimated in terms of activities’ degradation for the country or of riskiness for the population.
The French original version is:
Impacts (ou conséquences dommageables): effets prévisibles d’une agression réussie sur une cible, estimés en termes d’atteinte aux activités du pays ou de danger pour la population [4].
Netherlands
As part of the Methodology for National Risk Assessment (Dutch: NRB-methodiek), the Netherlands has defined a set of impact assessment criteria:
- 1. Territorial Security:
- 1.1 - infringement of the integrity of the Dutch territory;
- 1.2 - infringement of the integrity of the international position of The Netherlands
- 2. Physical Security:
- 2.1 - casualties;
- 2.2 - seriously wounded and chronically ill people;
- 2.3 - suffering of people (lack of primary supplies such as drinking water, food, medicine)
- 3. Economic Security:
- 3.1 - costs
- 4. Ecological Safety:
- 4.1 - long duration infringement of the environment and nature (flora and fauna)
- 5. Social and Cultural stability:
- 5.1 - disrupted daily life;
- 5.2 - infringement of the democratic constitutional state;
- 5.3 - social-psychological impact
United Kingdom (UK)
Impact is the scale of the consequences of a hazard or threat expressed in terms of a reduction in human welfare, damage to the environment and loss of security. [5]
For the approach of the UK regarding impact assessment, refer to Criticality Scale.
Standard Definitions

ISO/PAS 22399:2007
