There 4 options for Authentication in asp.net

- no authentication

- Individual User Accounts
Forms-based authentication, in which the user who visits the web site needs to create an account with his login name and password. These user credentials are stored in the SQL Server database. The passwords are of course hashed first and then stored in the database.

- Work and School accounts
This type of authentication is mainly used for business workplaces where active directory services are used to store the data. These services usually provide a single sign-on facility for internal apps. It needs Office 365 or Azure Active Directory Services for this authentication.

- Windows authentication
This type of authentication is mostly used for intranet applications, where the website is launched from the desktop who is in the same domain or firewall. This helps the web site in retrieving the use of credentials from the Active Directory of the desktop.

The default authentication in MVC is Individual User Accounts.

Individual User Accounts is a traditional forms-based authentication where users can visit a website. They can register, create a login, and by default their username is stored in a SQL Server database using some new ASP.NET identity features.
