Why is knowing only the password insufficient when two-step verification is enabled?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A second check must also be completed
Two-step verification uses two different kinds of evidence, commonly a password plus a code, approval, or biometric check. Therefore, a person who learns only the password may still be stopped at the second step. It does not mean that the account is permanently closed, files are deleted, or the website cannot open; it adds protection during login.
