How to set up Image-Based Behavioral Identity Check (Image Note Assertion)

The feature introduces a simple, personalized challenge that verifies identity using user-specific choices made during registration.

Users select an image and provide a personal note during signup. During login, after entering their username, they must select the same image and re-enter the note. Access is granted only if both match the stored data.

This step adds a behavioral layer to authentication, enhancing security through personalized verification.
