HDFS file security?

I have a question.
 
Most file systems have own security mechanism.
 
But, Hadoop dosen't have security mechanism for file system and job management.
 
Has Hadoop project  plan for security?
 
or
 
Has been already implemented ?

The need clearly exists, and there are general plans to put a security
mechanism in place, but no concrete plans, or even a design yet.
Contributions in this area would be appreciated.
