RE: External authentication options for C* (no DSE)

You can write your own using the appropriate interface(s) (for authentication 
and authorization). However, the interfaces have changed over the years, so it 
is likely not a write it and forget it bit of code.

External security is one of the important features of DSE, though.

Search a bit deeper in DSE docs, I've found this: 
http://www.datastax.com/wp-content/themes/datastax-2014-08/files/FF-DataStax-AdvancedSecurity.pdf.
Pratically no external authentication is available for Apache Cassandra.

Hi,
while for DSE versions of C* it's quite clear what external authentication 
options are available, I'm not sure about DSC or Apache versions. Can anyone 
point me to the right documentation on or provide a list of possibilities?
Thank you in advance.
