For open-source Cassandra, there is a framework for security (see the security book-thing in the sidebar): http://www.datastax.com/documentation/cassandra/1.2/webhelp/index.html
For those wanting additional things like auditing and other features, there's DataStax Enterprise: http://www.datastax.com/docs/datastax_enterprise3.1/security/index Disclaimer - I work at DataStax, but hopefully the docs are helpful.
