Relevant Background on Starcraft 2: "StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is a science fiction real-time strategy video game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. It was released worldwide in July 2010 for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X.[6] A sequel to the 1998 video game StarCraft and the Brood War expansion pack, the game is split into three installments: the base game, subtitled Wings of Liberty, an expansion pack, Heart of the Swarm, and a stand-alone expansion pack, Legacy of the Void.[7] In March 2016, a campaign pack called StarCraft II: Nova Covert Ops was released....Like its predecessor, the game revolves around three species: the Terrans (humans), the Zerg (a super-species of assimilated life forms),[8] and the Protoss (a technologically advanced species with vast psionic powers). Wings of Liberty focuses on the Terrans, while the expansions, Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void, focus on the Zerg and Protoss, respectively. The game is set four years after the events of 1998's Brood War, and follows the exploits of Jim Raynor as he leads an insurgent group against the autocratic Terran Dominion. The game includes new and returning characters and locations from the original game..." ("Starcraft 2": Wings Of Liberty, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StarCraft_II:_Wings_of_Liberty)

There are several reasons – some more obvious than others – but in general, it is a way to improve security and usability without hindering any features of the service you are trying to access....Here are some key benefits: Security is the most obvious benefit of using two-factor or multi-factor authentication. The more difficult it is to steal an account, the more secure it is. Two passwords mean twice the work for the attackers. Simple....Ease of access is another great reason to use two-factor authentication. Accessibility and reducing stress from having to remember dozens of passwords is another key benefit. Some experts believe this can, in certain business environments, even reduce operational costs and increase productivity...Compliance with certain standards inside of an organization is the final key factor. A company with a uniform login system is less prone to security mishaps.... 1. With 68% of use, mobile push notifications are the most common authentication method... 2. 19% of government agencies use hardware authentication tokens.... 3. Only 26% of companies use multi-factor authentication... 4. 77% of mobile devices have biometric security enabled.... 5. 61% of people use the same password on multiple services... 6. 81% of security breaches are due to weak or stolen passwords.... 7.
