It was deeper than a backup. I think before that, they mentioned backups were infected/destroyed before they could even be brought up. The paragraph before your quote also mentioned an outside security firm gave them a patch of some sort as well. So with the patch, removing all sources of the malware, and changing passwords, AND THEN replacing with backups? That's kind of what I imagined happening to secure the network.
