Securing data and assets has become a key concern for banks, government organizations, telecommunications firms, and hospitals, as well as for individuals. Keys, identity badges, and numeric keypads were widely used to prevent unauthorized access to data and locations. With technological advances, two-factor authentication was introduced, where individuals could gain access into secure premises only after they were authenticated twice by employing hardware devices and numeric codes. However, two-factor authentication has also become insecure as hackers were able to gain access to hardware devices and obtain numeric codes.
