Two-Factor Authentication - Incorrect Implementation

I'm not sure if this was brought up, but CCP's implementation of two-factor authentication is not truly two-factor and in my opinion provides a fall sense of security.

I would like to see true two-factor authentication instead of provide a code that can sent to my email, which was (hypothetically) most likely compromised by the people trying to gain access to my account in the first place.

Providing an email code is single factor (What you know and what you know) and I would like to see an option of removing the ability to use email as a verification means making it truly two-factor (What you know and what you have).
