Let’s call him David, standing at a crowded airport terminal. He’s trying to book a last-minute flight through a travel aggregator.

Healthcare software now powers everything, from telehealth visits to patient portals to digital billing. But, as healthcare goes online, these systems hold more sensitive data.
