Smaller organizations have less to lose. As always, it's risk management, cost/benefit. If the cost of counter-measures exceeds the sum total value of the organization, then it's actually worth it to just roll the dice and take the risk, since the business just isn't worth that much. Of course, nobody ever likes to be told their livelihood is of lesser value. One reason few people like security analysis is that it's largely about facing unpleasant truths.
