Implementation of an two-factor-authentication using Google's 2-Step Verification algorithm.
Admin (backend) users whose role's resources are in the list of protected resources, are asked to enter one-time security code generated by the Google Authenticator app on their mobile phone after they have authenticated themselves in the admin by using standard login dialog. This ensures that critical resources in the admin have extra protection layer that cannot be accessed by third parties without one-time security code. It includes cases when someone's laptop is stolen or accessed by third parties.
NOTE: Default login will be also required to login! 2FA is only an additional login to increase the security.
