Using Spring Security with Spring Batch

I have a Spring Service layer that is secured with @PreAuthorize annotation. So far this has been used through a web application. Now I need to enable our SpringBatch jobs to use these services.

What's the most straight-forward way to enable jobs to authorize them before calling these service methods?

I had the same problem, here is what I did to solve it :

In my tasklet, I called this method :

securityUtility.authenticateAs("login", "password");

Here is the definition of my authenticateAs method written in my SecurityUtility class injected in my tasklet, implementing ApplicationContextAware :

/**
 * Authenticate a user
 * @param username
 * @param password
 * @return
 */
public Authentication authenticateAs(String username, String password) {
    ProviderManager providerManager = (ProviderManager)applicationContext.getBean("authenticationManager");
    Authentication authentication = providerManager.authenticate(new UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(username, password));
    setAuthentication(authentication);
    return authentication;
}

It works well, let me know if you need more details ;)
