How do I verify my identity for Help Desk support?
ID verification via video call is required for select IT support requests that involve the use or change of personal information, e.g., password resets, two-factor authentication account changes, international support, etc.
- For security purposes, this verification cannot be done over a standard telephone call or email.
- To verify your identity, support staff must be able to clearly see your face and photo ID.
