You can use basic authentication or go all-out with ASP.NET directory security options, depends on what you need. See https://web.archive.org/web/20211020140238/https://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/031204-1.aspx for an overview of options available to you.

To sum it up:

• Windows Authentication Provider for simple authentication, you can use a single username/password combination or integrate with AD if you want to
• Passport Authentication Provider for integration with Microsoft passports
• Forms Authentication Provider gives you the most options but requires the most work, you basically work out all of the authentication parts (the user/password stores and how a user enters his credentials and they are checked in the application).
