My opinions is that they don't have anyone qualified to do it.
I've reported a couple of major security problems in projects and no one seems to know what to do about it.
For example, they checked in passwords for some 3rd party charity into source code. They then claimed they removed them from the repo. But alas, they didn't wipe the Git history and the passwords were still there in past commits.
I pointed this out and was told I was wrong.
I sent a link to the password directly, publicly on GitHub.
It took far too much effort to explain this if I was talking to "mid level and senior engineers".
