I need to create a page that requires users to log in with a username / email and password to access it, and then depending on who the user is, they get links to one more files they can download.

No need for a 'register' page - users will be added on the back-end. Can anyone recommend the best approach for this? Are there good plugins to handle this kind of thing? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

It's Wordpress 3.8.1 by the way.
