Spring Security covers the login and web security as well as the object level 
security. 

In terms of the login and web security, I wrote this stuff myself for 
JCatapult. It was pretty simple in general, but the gist is that a Servlet 
filter looks for a specific URL (i.e. /jcatapult-security-check) and then uses 
a well defined class to perform the login. You can also write a URI authorizer 
as well to verify that a user has specific roles and which roles can access a 
specific URI.

In terms of object level security, this is just a matter of writing a bit of 
AOP to check the users privileges prior to invoking a method. The way I handle 
this that during login, I stuff the User object into the session. Each request 
in my security filter I pull it out and stuff it into a ThreadLocal. Then, I 
just pull the User from the ThreadLocal and inspect it in a MethodInterceptor 
based on an annotation on the method.

I find it is generally pretty simple to write all this stuff in a library that 
I can re-use across projects. You can check out the code in the JCatapult 
Security library to get an idea of how I did it all:
