Hello Jigal,

for sure.

Basicly it's about a two factor authentification:

(JS Example, for security reasons not for production use):

	http://jsfiddle.net/russau/uRCTk/

This way the user will be asked for his normal password and an
additional onetime token, which can be generated with nearly every
smartphone on the market (iOs, Android, Windows Phone)

To achieve that my prototype hooks into

$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SC_OPTIONS']['t3lib/class.t3lib_userauth.php']['postUserLookUp'][]

and locks the backend until the onetime token is inserted correctly.

Regards
Kay
