    Hi @Gail Koppanyi ,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A platform!

    Please kindly understand that the Exchange Online tag here we mainly focus on general issues about Exchange Online.

    However, I want to confirm if you mean want to change the phone number and email address in security info as screenshot below.

    Based on my experience and tests, you could change the phone number by answering a call without assistance of phone number that no longer exist, as well as the email address.

    You could refer to Set up a phone call as your verification method - Microsoft Support and Set up an email address as your verification method - Microsoft Support for more information.

    If there is anything else I could help, please feel free to contact me.
