That is correct. If you're using HTTPS, there's no reason to use NTLM
Authentication anyway; Basic Authentication will do.

Web server authentication can be set on a per-directory (and for IIS, a
per-file) basis. Only those directories and files secured using NTLM
Authentication will require that authentication.
