Oct 25, 2013 at 17:07 | comment | added | malthe | I guess it's like the modern way of knowing things, i.e. I know how to find out really quick (using the internet). | |
Oct 25, 2013 at 12:57 | comment | added | paj28 | Either way, it is still one of the three factors mentioned, so the distinction is irrelevant for this question. These terms are not used 100% consistently. My thinking is that unless a key is securely contained within a physical object (like a smart card) that forbids extraction then it is something you know. Some people say that to be something you know, you must know it in your head alone, but I don't agree with that. | |
