something like this? (this read only one clause),
KEYWORD includes the whitespace at the beginning, but not at the end.

grammar Key;

start : clause EOF;

clause : SECURITY KEYWORD WS* ;

fragment WS : ' ' | '\t';
fragment NUMBER : ('0' .. '9')+;
fragment WORD : ('a' .. 'z')+;

SECURITY : ('S'|'s')('E'|'e')('C'|'c') WS* '=' ;

KEYWORD : WS* (WORD | NUMBER);



 cheers,
 Michael
