Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Early design review: Document Picture-in-Picture (Issue #798)

Two-factor authentication (2FA) is an identity and access management security method that requires two forms of identification to access resources and data. [2FA gives businesses the ability to monitor and help safeguard their most vulnerable information and networks](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa)[1](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa).

Some advantages of 2FA include:

There’s no need to use a hardware token generator. [These types of 2FA methods are often lost or misplaced](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa)[1](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa).
Passcode generators are more efficient than traditional passwords. [Generators are the safer option because no two passcodes are the same](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa)[1](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa).
[Max passcode entry prevents cybercriminals from hacking and accessing sensitive data](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa)[1](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa).
[The process is manageable and user-friendly](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa)[1](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/security-101/what-is-two-factor-authentication-2fa).
Would you like more information on any of these advantages or on other methods to address security risks?
