Wouldn't that make it 3FA? I'd need my password, my physical key and my fingerprints?


One could then argue the Google Authenticator app running on my iPhone is 3FA, as one needs to be able to unlock my iPhone to access it.

* Something you have - the phone with the authenticator

* Something you are - your fingerprint
