Why is a strong password necessary even with two-step verification?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The password is still the first security layer
Two-step verification adds a second proof of identity, such as a code or approval on a trusted device, but it does not replace the password. A strong, unique password makes the first step harder to guess or steal. If the password is weak, an attacker may still attempt access or exploit another weakness, so both protections should be used together.
