 Introduction
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-Simple authentication requires only secret piece of evidence (one factor) that
-a user can successfully claim a identiy (authenticate), for example, that you
-are allowed to login as `root@pam` on a specific Proxmox Backup Server.
-If the password gets stolen, or leaked in another way, anybody can use it to
-login - even if they should not be allowed to do so.
-
-With Two-factor authentication (TFA) a user is asked for an additional factor,
-to proof his authenticity. The extra factor is different from a password
-(something only the user knows), it is something only the user has, for example
-a piece of hardware (security key) or an secret saved on the users smartphone.
-
-This means that a remote user can never get hold on such a physical object. So,
-even if that user would know your password they cannot successfully
-authenticate as you, as your second factor is missing.

+account, as even if they have the password, they will not have access to the
