Why is a strong password necessary even when two-step verification is enabled?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Password is still the first security layer
Two-step verification adds another check after or alongside the password; it does not remove the password. A strong unique password makes the first barrier harder to guess or reuse in an attack. If the password is weak, an attacker may still gain the first part of access or exploit another recovery route. Both layers should be protected.
