About handling Authorization on a web site

$

When I have created a web site I have created a web.config in the folder where I want to restict access to a web page like this. This is based on forms authentication and that is working very good.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow roles="Administrators" />
            <deny users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Now I read a paper that say the following.
So if I create a web site or web application I use different method to handle authorization or maybe authenticationHave I right in that ?

There are a couple of ways to authorize access to parts of your
ASP.Net application:
    AuthorizeAttribute(MVC only)
    Principal
    PrincipalPermissionAttribute
    URL Authorization

All of them can be combined.
    For MVC applications we recommend using only Authorize
    For Web Applications we recommend using URL Authorization(and if needed function and property authorization use PrincipalPermission)
