Spark authentication does work in standalone mode (atleast it did, I haven't tested it in a while). The same shared secret has to be set on all the daemons (master and workers) and then also in the configs of any applications submitted. Since everyone shares the same secret its by no means ideal or a strong authentication.

Seems like only SparkSubmit load the properties from spark-defaults.conf. org.apache.spark.deploy.master.Master dose not really load the default setting from spark-defaults.conf. Dose it mean the spark authentication only work for like YARN model? Or I missed something with standalone model.
