Now, until your Smartphone or tablet near to you then you can easily sign on other Windows PCs without having to go through cumbersome two-factor authentication sign-in. that means at this situation your phone will work like smartcard, that is offering two-factor authentication for both local sign-in and remote access and this will help you in avoiding the use of your passwords.
