Скачать или смотреть Episode 5: How to Update Your Microsoft Account Security Information

In the event of an account-related support issue, Microsoft will use your security information to help rectify the problem. For this reason, it is important that you set up at least one additional sign in method by adding an alternate email address and/or phone number to your account. This way, Microsoft can send you a security code through one of these channels to verify your identity if you've forgotten your password. It also helps to protect your private information in the event someone else tries to access your account.

Your security information should always remain up to date. For example, if you get a new phone number or lose access to your alternate email address, then your security information should be updated to reflect these changes.
