Type of Edit (select all that apply)

Add new content (definitions, codeblocks, etc.)

Description (optional)

As part of a portfolio project, I'd like to add more content to the Cybersecurity: Multi-factor Authentication page. Namely, I'd like to add the larger buckets of factors (something you are/know/has) as well as more examples that people may come (OTP, Yubikey, etc).

Hi,

I would like to contribute to this issue. My intention is to add the following possible factors for authentication:

• Something you know
• Something you have
• Something you are
• Somewhere you are
• "Somewhen" you are (a specific time and/or date)

Common examples will be given for each of these five factors, although it will be noted that the last two factors are not very often used.

@andrew-selig Did you create this issue to work on yourself? Just confirming the intention to see if this issue should be assigned to you or a fellow contributor.

I was hoping to get it assigned to me. Just following the portfolio instructions in the Git/GitHub lesson.

I wasn't certain if this issue was open for contribution or not, hence me barging in with suggestions. I have a text file ready for submission as a potential upgrade/contribution, but since @andrew-selig asked for permission to contribute before me, then it's perfectly fine by me if this issue is not assigned to me.

Go for it @DCorneliusS

@DCorneliusS It's been a few weeks with no activity on this. Are you still working on this issue? Do you need assistance with your PR?

[DCorneliusS]

My honest apologies for the delay: I have been very, very busy with work over the past three weeks.

That being said, I believe I do have a markdown file ready to be pushed to the github repo only, every time I employ the git push command I get an error message saying that

remote: Permission to Codecademy/docs.git denied to DCorneliusS. fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Codecademy/docs.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403 My suspicion is that error message is due to me using https and not ssh to access the remote repo, but I am not sure.

Thank you for any help on the matter, and apologies for the delay.

Kind regards, --DC

@DCorneliusS it's because you're trying to push up to the Codecademy Docs repo. You'll need to fork of it first and then clone your forked version.

See the following for more info on forks: https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/about-forks

@DCorneliusS It's been another two weeks with no activity on this. Have you solved your problem? Do you need further assistance?
