The healthcare industry has as much incentive as the financial industry to maintain a high security environment. Fines for exposing PHI can be astronomical if a large number of records are compromised.

This is a new cold war that we've been in for a while now. Government backed hacker groups from foreign nations are constantly targeting high profile organizations. Healthcare, Finance, and Government are three of the top targets.

All who have tried to play the same "outrage" game as the Cheeto overlord have failed spectacularly.

I'm with you. Knowing the general dislike of them, they've always been a guilty pleasure.

I was thinking the same thing!

It's also focused on x-rays instead of the visible spectrum. I would hazard a guess that the resolution requirements for this are vastly different in scale compared to photography.
