This was probably in the bay. Which is one of the worst car break in spots in the country. Thieves dump anything they can not sell immediately. If it was drives, they are in a dumpster or a dump. If it is a laptop, the data can only be accessed now if you pull the drive, or boot it to some kind of guest/safe mode. I'd guess whoever gets this won't know what they have and will wipe it. That said, if someone figured out this was what it is, the data is probably worth what, millions of dollars? Is there a way the company could create a reward for this? Who would buy this kind of data, or who would pay to have it leaked? Who is it most useful to if held in secret? The most damaging would probably be if it fell into the hands of The Intercept or Wikileaks, who could drip it out.
