Setting up two-step verification
In addition to signing in with your Claris ID user name, or your email, and password, you can further protect your account by entering a unique verification code each time you sign in. The verification code is sent to the phone number you provide. By using this two-step verification process, both your password and a verification code are needed to sign in to your account.
If you didn’t set up two-step verification when you signed up for a Claris ID account, you can do so after you’ve created an account.
