I may not understand as you mention a "former systems security feature" exactly what you mean by this.

Did you find the section on "Enabling User Security in a Web Forms Application" under "Application Security" in the document? I stepped through this and it worked right out of the box for me.

You can set the page to require security with this code directly from the docs added to any page that requires login. This assumes of course you are using forms authentication.
protected override void OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
this.RequiresSecurity = true;
base.OnInit(e);
}
