LINCOLN – Lighthouse Security Group LLC is debuting a product at the IBM Pulse 2009 show, which is being held through Thursday at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas.

Lighthouse said it hopes companies will choose the Gateway service over traditional offerings because it eliminates the costs associated with installing and maintaining an in-house security infrastructure.

Lighthouse Gateway is estimated to cost an enterprise customer 30 to 60 percent less than full ownership of an in-house system over the first three years of operation, according to the company.

“As identity and access management becomes ever more critical due to heightened risks, regulatory compliance and corporate responsibility, the costs and investment to keep up with these technologies are mounting for most companies,” Eric Maass, enterprise security solutions director at Lighthouse, said in a statement.

“We strongly believe that the SaaS approach of the Gateway, built upon strong roots and our experience with similar challenges in the Department of Defense, will enable us to deliver a best-of-breed, turnkey solution for a fraction of the conventional cost-of-ownership,” he added.

Lighthouse’s new release comes as IBM announces a number of new Tivoli products at the Pulse conference, according to CNET News.
