-
Log in with your Cornell NetID and password (authenticate with Two-Step Login if prompted).
- Click the Register New Passkey button.
- Your browser may ask if you wish to allow Beyond Identity to be opened. Select always allow and open the application. This is required for the passkey to work correctly. (Your prompt may look slightly different.)
- If passkey enrollment is successful, Beyond Identity will open and show your newly created passkey.
- Close the Beyond Identity window.
- You have now set up Secure Connect on your device.
