$SFOR Five New Infringers are coming up-$AAPL $FB $GOOGL ( Google is confirmed by Mark ), Could Apple or Facebook be in line as well?

$AAPL Two-factor authentication/OOBA/Push for Apple ID

Is this different than Apple’s current two-step verification feature?

Yes. Two-factor authentication is a new service built directly into iOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, and Apple’s web sites. It uses different methods to trust devices and deliver verification codes, and offers a more streamlined user experience. The current two-step verification feature will continue to work separately for users who are already enrolled.



$FB 2 Factor Authentication(OOBA)/Log In Approval

As more individuals and businesses turn to Facebook to share and connect with others, people are looking to take more control over protecting their account from unauthorized access. Login approvals is a Two Factor Authentication system that requires you to enter a code we send to your mobile phone via text message whenever you log into Facebook from a new or unrecognized computer. Once you have entered this security code, you’ll have the option to save the device to your account so that you don’t see this challenge on future logins.

One challenge in building login approvals was balancing security and usability. Similar features on other websites require you to download authentication apps or purchase physical tokens to act as your second factor. These are good approaches, and we're considering incorporating them in the future, but they require a lot from the user before being able to turn on the feature. To have the biggest impact and provide this added security to the most people, we decided on SMS as the best choice for a second factor. That's a big part of the culture here at Facebook, whether you're an intern or an old hand: focus on impact.
