Testimonials
Lighthouse’s introduction of a cloud-computing platform for Identity and Access Management has generated enthusiastic support from industry analysts, partners and early customers. The following is a small representation of what the industry is saying about Lighthouse Gateway:
| “The Lighthouse Gateway solution is built on a security model that has been proven in operational use for the U.S. Air Force. Providing this solution as a service permits any organization to maintain a robust security posture, while reducing cost and risk, making it an enormously attractive alternative to conventional approaches.” |
| |
Mr. John Gilligan, Cyber Security Commission advisor to the President of the United States and former CIO of the U.S. Air Force. |
| “The Lighthouse Gateway is yet another wave in the commoditization of IT, encapsulating the lessons learned, experience, and derived services developed over a course of seven years securing and defending against the continuous and evolutionary attacks faced by the Air Force’s combat support community.” |
| Dr. Joseph Besselman, retired Air Force Program Manager, led the evolution of the Air Force’s multi-million user IT infrastructure to a SaaS model. |

“VantisLife was facing an initial cost of ownership investment in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, with a four- to six-month startup window, to meet enhanced security and regulatory compliance standards. Instead, with the Lighthouse Gateway solution, we have a state of the art security solution, at a fixed monthly service fee that will cost us less over three years than the cost of the initial stand-up of a wholly owned and operated infrastructure – and we went from assessment to implementation in just six weeks.” |
| Jim Lovelace, Associate Vice President of Information Technology, VantisLife |
| “Lighthouse Gateway was the perfect IT solution for us as it offered us a cost-effective tool that provides VantisLife with stronger growth capabilities and security features. We feel very good sitting here today with the IBM Tivoli Access Management-based solution and the Lighthouse expertise protecting us.” |
| Scott Smith, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, VantisLife |
