To create a new Cloudflare account:

1. [Sign up](https://dash.cloudflare.com/sign-up) on the Cloudflare dashboard.

2. To secure your account, enable [two-factor authentication](https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/user-profiles/2fa/).

3. After your account is accepted into the Cybersafe Schools program, you can to reach out to your Cloudflare contact and ask them to set up your account as a multi-user organization. This will allow you to define [role based access](https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/manage-members/roles/) controls. For this project, account members will need:

   * [**Gateway** permissions](https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/roles-permissions/) to read or edit DNS policies.
   * [**PII** permissions](https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/roles-permissions/#cloudflare-zero-trust-pii) to view user information in DNS logs.
   * [**Configuration** permissions](https://developers.cloudflare.com/email-security/account-setup/permissions/) for Area 1 Email Security.
