AD LDS for authentication to web application

Hi there. The company I work for is looking at using AD LDS for authentication and permissions for 3 web applications we currently run.

The applications are very archaic and use  MS SQL to store all data as well as passwords.

I am new to web applications and permissions. Can someone give me some detail as to how I would use AD LDS for authentication and to restrict access depending on the permission level? I would also like to know if there is a way to have a single sign on using AD LDS for all three websites?

The websites will be redeveloped but currently we are simply looking to improve security. I am unsure as to how permissions are currently done.

By the way, the websites hold confidential information so security is a priority.

Thank you

That's a great point to assign groups to subdirectories. I never thought about it that way. Is there any documentation that anyone knows of that can detail what I would need to do to setup this structure for my three websites? I am fairly new to this but am exploring it as an option unless someone can tell me of a better option for what i need done.
