You do that through a Security Risk Assessment. There are plenty of models (e.g. Octave) out there to help a security engineer conduct a Risk assessment on an organization's infrastructure. Moreover, a Security Risk Assessment is very strongly suggested by any Security Compliance Program that deals with sensitive information.
This dump clearly shows personally identifiable information, something that would be easily classified as sensitive (e.g. SSNs). I'm very sure Sony Pictures classified their leaked movies as sensitive since it would cause massive financial loss (which happened) if it was stolen.
If anybody was doing a Risk Assessment, protecting this critical part of the infrastructure would have been number 1 on the list.
Hackers are even claiming that a physical door with access to the sensitive environment was left unlocked. That's security 101!
