Your question is a bit vague. Are you asking if it is possible to secure a specific file using config.web?

If so, then yes. It would look like this:
XML
<configuration>
   <location path="MyFile.ext">
      <system.web>
         <authorization>
            <allow users="?"/>
         </authorization>
      </system.web>
   </location>
</configuration>


The <authorization> element allows or denies access, exactly as if you were securing a folder. Note that each file requires its own <location> element, so this method is not very useful for securing a large number of files.
