How To

What happens after you confirm

The recipient's side of their very first delivery.

Once you've confirmed a recipient's phone number (see confirming a recipient's phone number), the rest of the process happens automatically — you don't need to do anything further.

What the recipient sees

  1. They get a notice, same as any first-time recipient, and register a passkey on their own device.
  2. Before anything unlocks, they're asked to confirm a quick verification call placed to the phone number you vouched for.
  3. Once they've confirmed it, the originally held attachment is delivered, and their account is fully verified from that point on.

Both steps — their passkey and the phone verification call — have to succeed before the file unlocks. Neither one alone is enough: a stolen email session doesn't have their phone, and a stolen phone doesn't have their passkey.

After this first time

This whole process only happens once per recipient. Every attachment sent to them afterward — by you or anyone else in your organization — arrives and opens exactly like a normal delivery, with no verification call to repeat.
