They are executed in the order they appear in web.xml, subject to the mapping rules (i.e., if you have 4 filters, filter 2 and 3 might be skipped for a given request depending on how they are mapped, but filter 1 and 4 will fire in that order, assuming they are listed 1, 2, 3, 4).
So, in your specific case, if SecurityFilter is listed first and AccessControlFilter is listed second, then SecurityFilter will always fire before AccessControlFilter fires, but AccessControlFilter may not always fire, depending on its mapping. -- Frank W.
