In short: Hatty AI provides cybersecurity for businesses in Galt, CA and across Sacramento County. We are a GoDaddy Recommended Agency Partner with 500+ clients served, working remote-first from Cibolo, Texas.
Cybersecurity in Galt: what it looks like here
Ransomware is not hypothetical in Galt. In December 2019 an attack encrypted data on City of Galt servers, took down city email and disrupted the public phone lines. A small business on unpatched systems, reused passwords and no tested backups is an easier target than a city government.
We focus on the controls that stop most attacks on small Galt businesses: MFA on every account, email filtering and mail authentication, endpoint protection, patching, and backups you can actually restore, plus a one-page plan for what to do if something gets through.
Challenges Galt businesses face, and how Hatty AI helps
Local challenge 1
Local spending leaks to Elk Grove, Lodi and online retailers
The City of Galt names retail sales leakage as a major reason its sales tax is low: about $94 per resident, compared with $266 per person across Sacramento County. Residents spend more than local businesses capture. Source: cityofgalt.org
How Hatty AI helps: We cover the basics that stop most attacks on small businesses — MFA, patching, backups and email filtering — without enterprise overhead.
Local challenge 2
California compliance and paperwork land on small teams
At SBA Office of Advocacy roundtables in Sacramento and Modesto, California owners named state and local rules as their biggest concern. Nationally, 47% of small businesses say compliance takes too much of their time. Source: advocacy.sba.gov
How Hatty AI helps: We prioritize the controls that remove the most risk per dollar, and right-size cyber insurance requirements to what you actually need.
Local challenge 3
Ransomware has already hit Galt
In December 2019 a ransomware attack encrypted data on City of Galt servers, took down city email and disrupted the public phone lines. If a city can be hit, a small business on unpatched systems is a realistic target. Source: govtech.com
How Hatty AI helps: We harden identity and email, add endpoint detection, and write an incident-response plan your team has actually walked through — the gaps behind most local ransomware cases.

How we work
