    Unfortunately, it’s often implemented as two-step authentication though. Like asking for a password and an answer to a security question. Those are both something you know. Two-factor authentication would involve two of these factors: something you know, something you have, and something you are.

      I thought the security code version was more common. Either geting a SMS code or email or the better version with a designated Authenticator app.
