Scott,
While I consider doing this. on a personal level, is it relatively
easy to do this? Maybe its similar to unlocking both the regular door
lock and deadbolt on the front door?
And you mention the bank. How do you sign in on the iPhone if you
are out near your Mac?
From E.T.'s Keyboard...

Chris mentioned it’s not worth it, I very strongly disagree. I think it’s a
good point for the security value speech.;)
That is that you should evaluate the value of what you’re trying to secure and
then act appropriately. Here’s an extreme example. I might not try as hard to
secure my cable TV account which is of low risk but my account at work which
attaches to a network protecting 5 trillion dollars on deposit might require
more scrutiny. In other words, carefully evaluate the value of the data you’re
securing first and then make that call. Where your Macys account might not
have two factor maybe your main bank accounts and finial holdings should. Just
be careful. Remember passwords are extremely weak. Public key security or two
factor are far stronger so apply that as you will.

I am currently using 2-factor authentication, which according to the Apple
works similar to 2-step verification but with a lot of complexity add on top
from the foundation of 2-step. The only thing here however though is that your
device must be running iOS 9.3, OS X 10.11.4 or higher for this to work. In
addition, the 2-step verification must be turned off prior to turning this
option on or else it won’t appear. The method of turning this new 2-factor
authentication on is also different. Anyways, the 2-factor authentication for
me seem to definitely work better as I think it’s more modernized and enhanced
as suppose to just having you to enter the code that was sent to an iOS device.
This also works with Mac which is fantastic, and give you an option to allow or
denied and pin points the location based off of IP address.

More trouble than it's worth, and believe me, coming from me being hacked as
many times as I have been, that's saying something.

I may be a wee bit behind about this, but what do you guys think of two-step
verification? Is it essential? is it more trouble than it's worth?
