What are the Common Methods of Two-Factor Authentication?
There are various methods of 2FA commonly used in epidemiology:
1. SMS-based Authentication: A one-time code is sent to the user's mobile phone, which they need to enter along with their password. 2. Authenticator Apps: Apps like Google Authenticator generate time-based, one-time passcodes. 3. Biometric Verification: Uses fingerprints or facial recognition as the second factor. 4. Hardware Tokens: Physical devices that generate a unique code for each login attempt.
