If the light is flickering, it could just be a low battery or battery connection.
But don't ignore the issue because one day this factory imobilizer could cause you not to be able to start your own car or worse yet, malfunction when you are driving.
Here is a link to an interesting article you might want to read and yes, your vehicle is in the right column.
I also found this information: "With the security light on/flashing, the car will not start. With that light on, the computer is disabling the fuel injector circuit. After a try to start, it wont or dies, leave key on for 10-12 minutes, or until light goes out. Then turn off key for 10 seconds, turn key to 'on' position for 5 seconds, then turn to start and it should. This is a theft re-learn procedure, and will sometimes remedy the situation for the time being, but will have to repair the problem. A scanner should show codes(s) like b2958, b2960"
