They did. They were affected too, if you read the article.
If your backups are online and not in a warehouse, you are doing it wrong. Even my own personal backups are on disconnected disks. What a bunch of amateurs.
If you don't know you are infected and you've been infected for a couple months, your backups are worthless.
That's why you do regular restore tests on separate systems. That should be standard procedure for any company. A fully encrypted disk should be noticable immediately.
