Which of the following represents the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. The use of two different credentials to verify identity.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security process in which a user provides two different types of identification credentials to verify their identity. This adds an extra layer of protection to accounts and systems, making it more difficult for unauthorized users to gain access.

Common 2FA methods include:

  • Something you know (e.g., password or PIN)

  • Something you have (e.g., mobile phone, security token)

  • Something you are (e.g., fingerprint or facial recognition)
