Yep. At work we've gone from just a AD login to having to login with our AD credentials AND having a phone call sent to our mobile phones and entering a second X digit code. As big of a pain as it is, it certainly verifies that I am who I am. I'm surprised no loyalty program has implemented this yet. Then again most users are too stupid to figure out how VPN works, let alone having to remember two passwords
