Microsoft requires two different methods of notification/verification for SSPR. ITS recommends registering three different methods of verification, just to be safe.
Adding a mobile phone number at which you receive text messages or voice calls.
Adding an non-bccc.edu personal e-mail address, such as GMail, Yahoo, or Hotmail.
