[SOLVED]Mouse got affected by xorg.conf setting

I want to setting some behavior to my built in laptop touchpad with xorg.conf file, however my usb plugged mouse also got affected by that setting (which I didn't want).

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "system-touchpad"
    Option "Tapping" "1"
    Option "NaturalScrolling" "1"
EndSection

How can I set that setting only to my built in touchpad?

I use

        MatchIsTouchpad "on"

to pick up the touchpad but not USB mice or trackpoint. However, it will depend on which driver you're using. This line will work for libinput.
