I need to run the new security patches on Magento Open Source 2.4.3 - 2.4.3-p1 but Adobe don't actually elaborate on how to choose the correct version. My guess would be the COMPOSER version, but I would like to understand this, so could someone please explain how you know which one to use?

My open source instance was originally from an archive.
Magento 2 can be installed in two ways :
Github installation or Composer based Installation
A Github installation is usually used by developers who are contributing to the Magento codebase and is a clone of the Magento 2 github repo.
Production installations should use the composer based installation which downloads released packages of Magento 2 from the Magento composer repo.
A composer installation has the Magento core code located in /vendor/magento the github installation has the Magento core code located in /app/code
Use the composer patch for your Magento 2 composer based installation.
Attempting to use a github patch will fail as the patched files will not be found.
