Authenticator Confusion: Multiple Accts

Greetings! The FAQ has slightly confused me on the authenticator. I have two WoW accounts tied to my single B.net account. If I add an authenticator, will it cover a single B.net Account, a single account, or both accounts? My second WoW account belongs to my spouse, and we tend to slack off and play at work etc. Will I need to buy two authenticators so we can both play when we are separated?

The FAQ appears to use the B.net and WoW account interchangeably, does anyone have any knowledge (personal or second hand) on this subject?

As others have mentioned, Nadsat, the authenticator is good for one Battle.net account. All WoW accounts and SC2 accounts attached to your battle.net will be prompted for an authenticator code when you attempt to login.

Based on what I can see, both Warcraft accounts are registered under one name. Unfortunately separating both accounts may not be possible.You will need to contact our Billing and Account services to inquire about what options are available to you.
