What do they mean by "customer data"? Payment information and other PII, or real backup data from this cloud backup thing they have? I only know of this "My Cloud" service which appears to be somehow linked to some NAS-like HDD offerings they have. I never really read about it because it is irrelevant to me, so I don't know if they also mirror the data in the cloud, or if the cloud gives the attacker remote access to these NAS disks and that they exfiltrated data this way, or something else.

Let's speculate! Probably a lot based on the 10 terabyte number... and the SAP Backoffice... and that it took 5 days for them to come back up Ah, the SAP Backoffice, the magical land where businesses store their most treasured data, and where hackers drool over the potential loot. The SAP Backoffice system is a complex beast, made up of several components, such as: ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) - The backbone of the operation, keeping track of everything from finances to supply chain management. CRM (Customer Relationship Management) - The digital black book of customer interactions, preferences, and sales opportunities. SRM (Supplier Relationship Management) - The hub that orchestrates the delicate dance between a business and its suppliers. HCM (Human Capital Management) - The watchful eye over the company's most valuable asset: its people. PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) - The puppet master pulling the strings of a product's journey from inception to obsolescence. SCM (Supply Chain Management) - The maestro conducting the symphony of goods flowing from supplier to customer. BI (Business Intelligence) - The all-knowing oracle that uncovers hidden insights from the vast sea of data.

The MyCloud hardware line allows you to setup a NAS and optionally expose it to the internet through their online credential service so that you can access the files from anywhere. The data is not "in the cloud" per se, but the credentials and login portal are.
