There is lots going on in this space since security encompasses

• Authentication
• Authorization
• Encryption
• Auditing

Here is the Apache documentation:

The Apache Sentry project - this has some very interesting capabilities in coming HDFS releases

If you are going to read the HortonWorks link above you probably also want to read the Cloudera viewpoint.  Full disclosure - I work for Cloudera:
