<authentication mode="Windows">
<authorization>
<allow users="*">

Follow the instruction from MSDN: Authenticating Users with Windows Authentication (VB) | Microsoft Docs[^]
Authenticating Users with Windows Authentication (C#) | Microsoft Docs[^]

Quote:
You must enable Windows authentication by modifying your MVC application's web configuration (web.config) file. Find the <authentication> section and modify it to use Windows instead of Forms authentication like this:
XML

<authentication mode="Windows">
