Default Security light after pot hole

So I'm driving down the road at 50mph and come up on a huge pot hole that was unavoidable. I held my breath and took the hit and afterwards the amber security light came on the dash. I did a brief search and saw some comments about the passkey and VATS. I know my car has had the resistor installed in the VATS system. Anything I should be looking for?

Thanks in advance.

Correct. When I got to my destination, I tried to restart the car, and it started no problem.
