They aren't choices. They are for different things.

The three phases are:

* access
* authentication
* authorization

To perhaps try and understand the distinction read:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/howto/access.html
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/howto/auth.html

That said, it is hard for me to recommend anything as only you
understand your application and what you are trying to do. Anyone else
can only assume things based on what information you decide to make
available.
