#2 California Recommendation:

“Organizations should make multi-factor authentication available on consumer-facing online accounts that contain sensitive personal information. This stronger procedure would provide greater protection than just the username-and-password combination for personal accounts such as online shopping accounts, health care websites and patient portals, and web-based email accounts.” - Attorney General Kamala D. Harris

“something you know” + “something you have” + “something you are” (password or PIN) (cellphone or token) (keystroke pattern)
