Passwords by their nature have to be stored in databases, and databases can be hacked.  Assuming that  your password will be compromised at some point, MFA protects our sensitive data because a cybercriminal who gets access to a password would also need to acquire your secondary factor to gain access to your data.

In the absence of a cell phone security questions can be used as an MFA option. We do not recommend this option as it is less secure so if you do have a cell phone please use an app or SMS.

The best option for generic or shared accounts is converting to a Google Group.

If Google Groups is not a feasible option one person should be designated the account manager and delegation should be set up for others who need to access the account.
