Google announced two-step verification for its two billion users on World Password Day (May 6, 2021). However, what exactly is two-step verification and how does it work? We need to understand the principle behind two-factor authentication as more websites, applications, and games implement it as part of their login processes. When we talk about authentication factors, we're talking about three different types of authentication methods: Something you know:  Passwords and one-time PINs, sometimes known as OTPs, are examples of knowledge-based factors.
