More universal 2-step auth

[interfasys]

I just read about the new "Security Questions" feature and while it's a nice extra layer of protection, I'd rather have a more standard 2 factor auth system in place using something like Google Authenticator. It's what banking institutions use and it's kind of universal.

Google's implementation can be found here:
https://code.google.com/p/google-authenticator/

Every mobile platform has a compatible temp pin generator (not necessarily from Google).

Agree as well. I asked for the same thing back in Feb.

Sorry for the duplicate post. I did a search, but missed yours.

Would like this a lot as well, should be on top of the wish-list.

Two factor authentication is important

I would like to bring this thread back to know if there are news about this feature request. This feature has been part of other systems for a while (like WHCMS, that lot of hosting companies use).
I think this second layer (or shield) of protection is a must in this days.
Thanks in advance.
