A:
leonm's answer is 100% correct, but like many things in Spring there are multiple ways of doing this (well at least in Spring Security's case).
You can also subclass SpringSecurityFilter and then add it to the Spring Security Filter Chain like this:
<bean id="mySecurityFilter" class="org.example.MySecurityFilter">
...setup like a normal bean
<custom-filter position="LAST"/>
</bean>
Check out this link <security:custom-filter> for all the different values you can use for the position argument.

Probably not, but since I did not know what your filter was doing I figured I would show you the second option.
