Because home users are not Enterprise users. They are not nearly as juicy a target.
If we are talking about malware and vulnerabilities, home users are a far bigger and easier target then corps.
Corporations have a custom firewall, proxy servers, VPN connections for all clients and double safeties for all important processes. While they are an interesting target for big organisations like terrorists and secret services, they have near to no value for the average Internet thiefe. Even if one could get in, there are no bank accounts lying around with money in them.
Home users have none of that, once you are on their PC you get everything. Sure their bank account will only net you a few thousand on average, but you get it easily.
What? Why would you get anything from a home user that you would not get from a corporate user? In fact I think you will find they get all the juice from the person (staff) and then extra from the business (and access to more victims).
You also have to factor in the sad fact that the age of viruses and malware has largely become the age of phishing and scams. People found out you don’t need malware when you can just trick people into giving you access anyway. This endless fear of missing updates is now mostly just marketing.
Very well said 👍
