Solution

The best option that meets these requirements would be the Short Message Service (SMS). This is because it adds a second factor of authentication by sending a code to the user's phone that they must enter to log in. It is secure because it requires the user to have physical access to their phone. Additionally, it is cost-effective as it does not require any additional hardware like fingerprint scanners or authenticator apps. The use of a Personal Identification Number (PIN) alone would not be a second factor of authentication as it is something the user knows, just like their password.
