Mason,
You can create ssh keys that require a password. At least the ones I
created on my systems always asked me for a password. if I didn't want
the password I wouldn't eneter one.

SSH keys don't require a password, and you can't enforce that they have
one. It would satisfy "thing thing you have" but no guarantee of
requiring "the thing you know."
